There are some exceptional players in both XIs and each captain knows how to get his team playing to the top of their ability. The return of Jhye Richardson may well be enough to give Perth Scorchers the edge. These two teams are very well known to each other and there is a great deal of respect for the players and management of both sides. The Scorchers have their opening batters and their bowlers all performing to a high standard and we are backing them to beat Sydney Sixers in a well-contested game. Considering the team combination, Perth Scorchers is expected to win this match.
