The 25th match of the ongoing Big Bash League will see the clash between Perth Scorchers and Adelaide Strikers on Wednesday at Perth Stadium in Perth. Perth Scorchers have been undefeated in the tournament so far with their three victories on the trot from their past four games. Their one game ended in no result. Scorchers are sitting on the fourth position in the points table with seven points and the positive NRR of +1.707. 

Going into this game, Scorchers would look forward to continuing with the same rhythm and dealing in victories. Perth Scorchers played their last game against Melbourne Renegades that they won by 13 runs. 

On the other hand, Adelaide Strikers have looked quite meagre in their performance as they have lost three matches in a row. They have only won one game while one match didn’t give out any result. Strikers would need to come up with some great performances to assert themselves in the points table. Currently, they are sitting on the sixth position in the points table with three points and the negative NRR of -0.278. Adelaide Strikers will enter this game on the back of their seven-wicket defeat against Melbourne Stars. 

Perth Scorchers Probable XI: Cooper Connolly, Zak Crawley, Aaron Hardie (c), Josh Inglis (wk), Laurie Evans, Nick Hobson, Ashton Agar, Jhye Richardson, Andrew Tye, Jason Behrendorff, Lance Morris

Adelaide Strikers Probable XI: Matthew Short (c), D Arcy Short, Chris Lynn, Adam Hose, Jamie Overton, Harry Nielsen (wk), James Bazley, Ben Manenti, Wes Agar, Brendan Doggett, Cameron Boyce
