Perth Scorchers (SCO) will be up against Adelaide Strikers (STR) in the 25th match of the ongoing BBL 2023/24. The match is set to happen at the Optus Stadium in Perth on the 3rd of January. It will be a night game and the players will be excited to take part in the big match. 

The two teams have had a contrasting progression in the league so far. The strikers have not had a good season till now. The former champions have played 5 matches in the 13th edition of the league till now and managed to win only one of them. Strikers have lost 3 matches and find themselves in the sixth spot in the points table. Adelaide has lost all their last 3 matches after starting the tournament without a loss in the first 2 matches of the season.

On the other hand, Perth Scorchers have been brilliant as usual. The 5-time champions are yet to lose a game in the ongoing season. It is a stern statement from the champion side. But Scorchers have played the least number of games in the season. In 4 matches, Scorchers have 3 wins to their name and have not lost a game till now. One of their games was abandoned and did not provide a result. Scorchers have won their last 3 games. They start as the favorites to win the match given the home conditions.

SCO vs STR - Likely Pitch Conditions

The match is set to happen at Optus Stadium in Perth. The stadium has hosted a lot of matches at the highest level since 2018. In all the formats, the stadium has hosted matches and some of them have been memorable. The stadium is known for a difficult pitch where the Pacers usually dominate. With the seam on offer, the pacers can be threatening. There is a fair bounce in the wicket, although it is not at the level of the Old WACA wicket at Perth.

In T20s it is not any different either. In the T20 World Cup 2022, India and South Africa faced each other and had a very difficult match where the batters struggled to score runs. Every second ball seemed like an event. Even in the BBL history, Perth has had a similar wicket. Pacers dominate at the venue and batters find it difficult to score runs due to a difficult pitch and long boundaries. Strike rotation would be key for the batters and teams would not mind batting first.
