PS vs BH Probable Winners:

The Perth Scorchers will have minimal confidence. Their struggles from the previous season persisted in their opening game this season. The bowling attack must perform for the squad to win this game. The Brisbane Heat have a formidable batting lineup and a favorable record versus the Renegades. It will be a competitive game, although the Hurricanes will be the favorites. Considering the team combination, Brisbane Heat is expected to win this match.

The Scorchers are off to a tight start at the moment. A generally consistent side, they are not off to a roll like usual. Heat though are in with a lot of momentum and the highs of the last two seasons seem to be growing well.

Considering the team combination, Brisbane Heat-W is expected to win this match.

Brisbane are off to a good start this season with Grace Harris and Jess Jonassen looking very good with leading the way with bat and ball. Perth though are yet to get into their own groove and the WACA may help with that.

Alana King

Alana King loved the new ball in the previous game. She started off with her leg-spin and looks pretty tough to pick with her subtle variations in pace.

Laura Harris

Laura Harris is looking good as the finisher with Brisbane. She has the capability of finding the ropes with ease and is doing really well to add those extra ten or fifteen runs in the back end of the innings.

Both sides did struggle last season but Brisbane may back themselves given they look a touch more balanced with their line-up.

Match Prediction: Brisbane Heat Will Win the Match

Brisbane Heat managed a strong win with Michael Neser proving to be too good with an all-round show. His batting helps them improve on their overall depth as they look a really consistent side now despite the potential loss of Khawaja and Labuschagne for the upcoming game.

PS vs BH Key Players

Josh Inglis

Josh Inglis is now an Australian regular and is probably the best wicket-keeper in the country at the moment. He is solid in the middle order and a good tournament here could spice things up with a T20 World Cup selection.

Michael Neser

Michael Neser is stepping up as an all-rounder. He is doing a fine job and has absolutely dominated the previous fixture on his own. He is a player known for his consistency with the ball and now that with frequent contributions from the batting side too he is turning out to be a dangerous player in the line-up.

PS vs BH Match Tips

Brisbane won the first encounter between the two sides but Perth could take the next with home advantage on their side. Perth additionally is not a side that goes down easy and will be eager to settle the score soon. The winner here though could well determine who is favorites for the cup with the tournament drawing into its business end.

Match Prediction: Perth Scorchers Will Win the Match
