Match Details:

The 37th match of the Big Bash League (BBL) 2020-21 will be played between Perth Scorchers and Hobart Hurricanes at the Optus Stadium in Perth.

The match is scheduled to start at 01:45 PM IST (04:15 PM local time). It will be live on Sony Ten Network and can be streamed live on Sony LIV.

Preview:

A couple of weeks ago, Perth Scorchers were looking destined to finish amongst the bottom three in the 2020/21 edition of Big Bash League. However, they have not only turned their campaign around, but are now looking like one of the favourites to confirm their berth in the semi-finals.

Their opposition, Hobart Hurricanes are also favourites to make it to the semis, but their case is a bit different. After winning 5 of their first 7 games, they have taken their foot off the accelerator and have lost their last two games. While they still are placed in the third position, Hurricanes will now have to start picking up wins, for the chasing pack is not far behind.
