Perth Scorchers will take on Adelaide Strikers in the 39th match of the Big Bash League 2025. This match will be played at Perth Stadium. Perth Scorchers are seventh in the table with three wins in nine matches. They lost the previous match against the Thunder. On the other hand, Adelaide Strikers have three wins in nine matches and are placed sixth in the points table.
For Adelaide Strikers, James Bazley and Cam Boyce come into the squad, with Jamie Overton returning to national duties with the England Cricket Team, and Chris Lynn unable to recover in time from a minor hamstring strain. Adelaide suffered a three-wicket defeat in the last game against Sydney Sixers. They posted 182 runs on the board but could not defend the target. This will be a must win game for them to keep their chances alive. They will be keen to do well in this game.
The Scorchers, however, have now fallen almost to bottom of the table with four losses in a row and remain winless in 2025. They have a very little chance of making to the top 4 for which they need to win this game and hope the other results go their way. It looks very difficult but mathematically they are still in it. In the previous match Sydney Thunder demolished the Perth Scorchers by 61 runs at the Engie Stadium. The Scorchers were never really in the chase of 159 as wickets tumbled constantly without any substantial partnerships of note and they were bowled out for 97.
