Melbourne Stars vs Perth Scorchers BBL T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips
Get to Know Who will win STA vs SCO, Big Bash League match, toss Prediction with Head to Head stats, Playing 11, Dream11 Prediction, Betting Rates, Live score & winning percentage.
Joe Clarke is the only player to have hit a century so far in this edition of the BBL and the opener is well worth backing as Melbourne Stars’ highest run scorer against Perth Scorchers. With the ball, Adam Zampa took 3-27 in the last match and the captain is a strong choice for Melbourne Stars’ top wicket taker in this game.
We are backing Faf du Plessis to be Perth Scorchers’ highest run scorer against Melbourne Stars. He hit an impressive 32 runs from 16 balls at the top of the order in the defeat to Hobart Hurricanes. Jhye Richardson has taken 13 wickets in his last five BBL appearances and the pace bowler is our pick for Perth Scorchers’ top wicket taker in this clash.
With his current form, it is hard to see Jhye Richardson not making a big impact on this match. We recommend backing him to take over 2.5 wickets.

STA vs SCO T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, BBL 2022
Match 12 of the 2022-23 Big Bash League sees Melbourne Stars and Perth Scorchers go head to head at the Junction Oval on Friday afternoon.

Melbourne Stars could well be a surprise team this year with runs at the top of the order and plenty of bowling options. Although they will need all their top players delivering their best in this game to get another win.
Perth Scorchers came up only eight runs short in an exciting game against Hobart Hurricanes on Monday but they have a team full of experience and quality and will expect to get back to winning ways in this match.

Melbourne Stars Team News & Playing 11
STA Team News
The Stars will have the same players available for this game as for their last fixture with only Glenn Maxwell and Joe Burns ruled out for the whole of this BBL. After the impressive performance against the Hurricanes, we anticipate the same XI at the Junction Oval.
STA Key Players
Joe Clarke - The English keeper-batter hit five half-centuries for the Stars in the 2021-22 BBL season and was in fine form striking nine fours and four sixes against Hobart Hurricanes.
Marcus Stoinis - The 33 year old batter has been in excellent international form but has been dismissed for two ducks and faced three balls in two BBL fixtures so far. He will be keen to get his campaign going in front of the home fans.
Adam Zampa - The skipper and leg-spinner should enjoy bowling on this wicket at the Junction Oval. He has conceded 27 runs in both of the first two games and picked up five wickets in total.
STA Team Form
The win against Hobart Hurricanes on Friday means that Melbourne Stars have now won three of their last four BBL games.
Joe Clarke (wk), Thomas Rogers, Beau Webster, Marcus Stoinis, Hilton Cartwright, Nick Larkin, Luke Wood, Campbell Kellaway, Nathan Coulter-Nile, Trent Boult, Adam Zampa (c)
Melbourne Stars vs Perth Scorchers Match Prediction
Perth Scorchers Team News & Playing 11
SCO Team News
With Phil Salt and Mitchell Marsh already unavailable for the entire season through injury, Perth Scorchers are also without the services of Cameron Green and Lance Morris for this match with the Boxing Day Test against South Africa approaching.
SCO Key Players
Faf du Plessis - The South African opener hit three fours and three sixes with a strike-rate of 200 against Hobart Hurricanes in BBL 2022. He is a destructive batter who could win this game on his own.
Josh Inglis - The keeper-batter top scored for the Scorchers in the last match with 62 runs from 37 balls. He is a very tidy wicket-keeper and will keep the fielders focused during this game.
Jhye Richardson - The 26 year old right arm fast bowler missed out on Test selection due to a slight injury at the end of last month but that has been the gain for the Scorchers. Richardson has seven wickets already in this campaign.
SCO Team Form
The defeat against Hobart Hurricanes in Match 8 ended a winning run of four matches for the 2021-22 champions Perth Scorchers.
Perth Scorchers Predicted Playing 11
Adam Lyth, Faf du Plessis, Nick Hobson, Josh Inglis (wk), Ashton Turner (c), Aaron Hardie, Ashton Agar, Jhye Richardson, Andrew Tye, Jason Behrendorff, Peter Hatzoglou

Melbourne Stars vs Perth Scorchers Betting Odds
With both teams striving for their second win from three BBL games this year, the bookies have Perth Scorchers as favourites ahead of this clash.
Who will win Melbourne Stars vs Hobart Hurricanes T20 Match?
The key contests in this game will be between the Melbourne Stars batters and the Perth Scorchers bowlers. Although Joe Clarke was in excellent form in the last game, Scorchers’ bowlers are the best in the league.
MLS vs PRS Top Team Batsmen
With the bat, we are backing Marcus Stoinis, Joe Clarke and Thomas Rogers for Melbourne Stars. In spite of his two ducks to begin this year’s tournament, the bookies expect to see Stoinis make a big score in this match. Rogers has made starts in all three of his BBL appearances and this could be the game when he kicks on.
For Perth Scorchers, Faf du Plessis, Adam Lyth and Josh Inglis are our batting tips. After a typically aggressive start against Hobart Hurricanes, the bookmakers are backing Faf du Plessis to top score in this game. Lyth has been very consistent in the T20 Blast and the Hundred over the last few years and a big BBL score is not far away.
Trent Boult, Adam Zampa and Luke Wood are our bowling recommendations for Melbourne Stars. Boult has the top odds with the bookmakers after picking up three wickets across the opening two matches. Wood impressed with figures of 3-25 against Hobart Hurricanes.
Jhye Richardson, Jason Behrendorff and Andrew Tye are our picks to be Perth Scorchers’ top bowlers. Richardson has pace as well as relentless accuracy and it is no surprise to see the bookies tipping him for more success. Behrendorff has taken wickets in both of the opening games with batters struggling against his left-arm angle.
With the Stars and the Scorchers both searching for their second win of the campaign, we expect a high scoring and exciting contest at the Junction Oval. Ultimately, we think that the quality of Perth Scorchers’ bowlers will be the biggest factor in this game and are backing them to beat Melbourne Stars.
