HEAD TO HEAD (LAST FIVE MATCHES): 

TOP 5 SCO vs SIX BETTING TIPS:

1. Sean Abbott’s total dismissals will be over 1.5

The spearhead of Sydney Sixers’ bowling attack has been the finest bowler of this BBL season. Currently being the leading wicket-taker of the BBL 2022-23, Abbott has as many as 25 wickets to his name in 13 league matches. He will be extra effective in assisting conditions at Perth.

2. The method of the 1st dismissal will be ‘caught’ (two-way)

The mode of first dismissal is often caught regardless of the format. Moreover, The Perth Stadium is known to produce fast and bouncy pitches. The surface has true bounce and hence the ball carries to the slip fielders and wicketkeeper comprehensively. Backing the 1st dismissal to be ‘caught’ will not be a bad idea.

3. Steven Smith will win the match-up with Jos Phillippe

Smith was in the headlines last week following two consecutive centuries in the BBL. The middle-order batter played two mammoth innings against the quality bowling lineups of Strikers and Thunder. He is extremely experienced, which often turns out to be decisive in high-pressure matches.

4. Sydney Sixers will be the top batter’s team

Even though Perth Scorchers appears as a better all-round lineup, The Sydney-based team feature a formidable batting unit. The likes of Josh Phillippe, Steven Smith, Moises Henriques and Kurtis Petterson mark their presence in the team, being runaway match winners.

5. Andrew Tye will be Perth Scorchers’ top bowler

Tye is the second leading wicket-taker taker so far in the ongoing competition with 24 wickets. Bowling in tough phases for the team, the right-arm pacer has been lethal on a consistent basis. We expect multiple dismissals from Tye in the all-important fixture.

SCO vs SIX FINAL VERDICT:

The Ashton Turner-led Perth Scorchers head into Saturday night’s contest as marginal favourites due to added home advantage and hence we back them to hand over a defeat to Sydney Sixers. Having registered 11 victories in 14 league matches, The Perth-based side has been the finest team so far in the BBL 2022-23. At the same time a fierce fight from Sixers is always expected.
