The Perth Scorchers are poised to claim another BBL title as they take on the Sydney Sixers. The Scorchers, having won their last four games and overcoming the Sixers in recent encounters, are set on victory. Key players Finn Allen and Steven Smith are predicted to score well. The match will likely be decided by superb form and strategic player contributions. The Scorchers' balanced approach and home advantage lean the odds in their favor.

Perth Scorchers vs Sydney Sixers Predictions


The Perth Scorchers are in superb form and seldom lose at home. They have also beaten the Sixers in their last two meetings, including the challenger, just few days ago.

The Sixers have been very reliant on runs from Steven Smith in the latter part of this season, so they will be hopeful of someone else contributing. My best bet is on a Scorchers win with Finn Allen and Steven Smith to score big for their respective teams.

  • Perth Scorchers have won their last 2 matches against the Sydney Sixers.
  • Perth Scorchers have won their last 4 matches.
  • Perth Scorchers’ Finn Allen has scored 38, 101, 69 & 49 runs in his last 4 BBL innings.
  • Sydney Sixers have won 3 of their last 4 matches.
  • Sydney Sixers’ Steven Smith has scored 100, 54, 37 & 65 runs in his last 4 BBL innings.

Head to Head


The Scorchers have won three of their last five BBL matches against the Sydney Sixers, including the last two. 

Perth Scorchers Form


The Perth Scorchers topped the Big Bash table with seven wins and three losses in 10 matches. Their 14 points was one point clear of the Sydney Sixers in second place.

In the qualifier where the top two meet, the Scorchers batted first, scoring a modest 147-9 in 20 overs. Finn Allen’s impressive BBL campaign continued as the New Zealander scored 49 off 30 balls. He had little support until Ashton Turner contributed 29 runs late on in the innings.

Another superb bowling display saw the Scorchers defend that total with ease, bowling the Sixers out for 99 runs. Mahli Beardman took 3-20 while David Payne and Cooper Connolly took two wickets each in a 48-run victory.

Sydney Sixers Form


The Sydney Sixers finished just one point off the Perth Scorchers but after losing the qualifier to the Perth side, they had to play the Challenger to qualify for the final.

Batting first against the Hobart Hurricanes, Steven Smith carried the Sixers once again, scoring 65 runs in a total of 198. There were other contributions from Joel Davies and Lachlan Shaw, but nothing substantial.

The Hurricanes struggled in the chase from the onset and although they looked to be in a fairly decent position after nine overs (70-2), the scoring rate was below what was required. That pressure told as the Sixers started taking regular wickets, bowling the Hurricanes out for 141 runs to secure their spot in the final.

Perth Scorchers vs Sydney Sixers Team News


These two sides met a few days ago and I really don’t see much change for the final. The pitch will ultimately decide on the selection, but that is mainly in the bowling department.

Verdict

I am backing the Perth Scorchers to win the BBL title with Finn Allen to top score.

For the Sixers, Steven Smith is tipped in the best batsman market.
