Three out of the five places in the BBL 09 finals have been locked up and only the final two places are left to be filled. There are still four teams in contention for those spots who are all trying their hardest to take this contest till the last match.
The Adelaide Strikers will be playing against the Perth Scorchers in this match. The Adelaide Strikers are assured of playing the final but they have a potential top-2 finish within grasp. The upside of finishing in the top-2 is immense as it allows the teams to get two shots of qualifying for the Grand Final.
Both the teams are coming into this match on the back of an impressive win and will be hoping to improve their fortunes further.
Perth Scorchers vs Adelaide Strikers BBL 09 is going to be played at the Perth Stadium, Perth on the 24th of January 2020.
MATCH PREVIEW
ADELAIDE STRIKERS
The return of Travis Head to the Adelaide Strikers side has helped them become immensely stronger. The batting was a weak spot for the Adelaide Strikers and they seem to have addressed that pretty well now.
The middle-order of Head, Carey, Wells, and Short has been performing very nicely and gives the Adelaide Strikers some decent depth to work with. We don’t think Jake Weatherald and Phil Salt are the two best openers for this team but they both are dangerous enough to score runs on their days.
