Mitchell Marsh’s return has further boosted the Scorchers ahead of SCO vs HUR BBL game.
Scorchers, undeniably, start as favourites for this one. Not only are they sitting at the top tier of the standings with an infallible record in the competition so far, but are also facing an opposition that is struggling for form and confidence. Also, in their last outing versus the Hurricanes on Tuesday (December 13), they beat them handsomely by a margin of 53 runs.
1. Mitchell Marsh (10 credits) – Marsh made a resounding return to the BBL with the last game against Hurricanes. Australia’s T20 World Cup hero continued his excellent batting form, scoring a hundred to push Scorchers to a huge score in their win. His great form makes Marsh a terrific captaincy pick.
2. Matthew Wade (9.5 credits) – Wade has been one of the in-form Hurricanes batter. Since helping Australia win the T20 World Cup in UAE, the wicketkeeper-batter has struck 117 runs from his 3 games of BBL 2021-22 with a fantastic strike-rate of 169.58.
3. Colin Munro (9.5 credits) – Munro is Scorchers’ highest run-getter of the season so far with 117 runs, including a hundred, at a strike-rate of 146.25. The New Zealand left-hander will be hoping to continue his good run against the Hurricanes.
1. Nathan Ellis (8.5 credits) – Ellis was the stand-out bowler for Hurricanes in their defeat to Scorchers in the last match. The pacer bagged 2 wickets for 33 runs off his 4 overs bowling to a rampaging Mitchell Marsh.
2. Tymal Mills (8.5 credits) – England left-arm pacer Mills was fantastic in the last game for Scorchers, taking 3 wickets for only 23 runs off his 4 overs. He was instrumental in Scorchers’ big win.
3. Jason Behrendorff (8.5 credits) – Behrendorff has also been very good with the ball for the Scorchers. The tall left-arm pacer has taken five wickets from his three games of the BBL 2021-22 so far with an economy rate of 6.93.
Matthew Wade (wk), Ben McDermott (wk), Colin Munro (vc), Kurtis Patterson, L Evans, Mitchell Marsh (c), Ashton Agar, Jason Behrendorff, Tymal Mills, Sandeep Lamichhane, Nathan Ellis
