On Saturday night at Perth Stadium, Match 33 of the 2022–23 Big Bash League pits Perth Scorchers against Brisbane Heat. Despite being in first place, the Scorchers dropped their most recent match. Brisbane Heat is currently in last place in the standings but has won their last two games. At 20:45 local time on January 7th, the game begins in Perth.
The Perth Scorchers won the competition the previous year, and despite falling to their closest rivals, Sydney Thunder, in the last game, we anticipate that they will be superior to Brisbane Heat in every way.
Brisbane Heat will want to show they can compete with the top teams after being on track for a high score against Sydney Sixers before the rain started to fall. The Perth Scorchers will present even greater competition in this match, though.

Perth Scorchers is the favourite to win this match.
In their matchup with the Sydney Sixers, the Brisbane Heat showed grit. They also had players who are in form and they are Colin Munro, Michael Neser, Nathan McSweeney, and James Bazley. It remains to be seen if those will be sufficient to trouble the top of the table side. Despite having a strong team, the Perth Scorchers will be weaker without Jhye Richardson. They have only stumbled in two games so far in this campaign, and we anticipate that they will resume winning ways in this game.
