Perth Scorchers are favourites to win
Perth Scorchers take on Melbourne Stars on Tuesday afternoon at the GMHBA Stadium in Geelong. The Scorchers continue to set the pace in this year’s BBL and are top of the table with nine wins from eleven games. Melbourne Stars are in 7th but beat Adelaide Strikers on Monday. Read on as we preview this game. This BBL fixture begins in Geelong at 14:10 local time.
Perth Scorchers have won every game against each team in the tournament apart from Sydney Thunder. They will be very confident of registering another victory against Melbourne Stars.
Melbourne Stars got a much needed win over Adelaide Strikers on Monday and are now looking up the table. They are almost back to full strength but will need to be at the top of their game if they are to win this match.
Seven Network and Fox Sports will show this game in Australia. In India, you can watch it on Sony Six. Sky Cricket have the rights in the UK with Willow TV showing the match in the USA. In South Africa you can watch it on SuperSport with Sky Sports showing the game in New Zealand.
BBL Live Streaming: Fans can stream the match on Disney+ Hotstar.
Perth Scorchers have chosen to bat first in every game that they have won the toss in the tournament. We expect both skippers to elect to bat first in this match.
Slow bowlers and pace bowlers will find something to help them in this pitch in Geelong. Batters may struggle with a slight two-paced nature to the wicket.
Partly cloudy with the temperature in the mid-20s throughout the game.

The Scorchers are going to be without Colin Munro and Jason Behrendorff for three of their final four group stage matches. This is a blow for the table toppers who were already doing without Tymal Mills who has returned to England. We expect to see an unchanged XI for this match.
Perth Scorchers have won three of their last four games and continue to set the standard in the BBL 2021-22.
Kurtis Patterson, Cameron Bancroft (wk), Laurie Evans, Ashton Turner (c), Aaron Hardie, Chris Sabburg, Ashton Agar, Andrew Tye, Matthew Kelly, Peter Hatzoglou, Lance Morris
All-rounder Clint Hinchcliffe was promoted to open the batting in his first BBL outing since Christmas Eve. Although he only made 2 runs, he is likely to retain his place in the side due to a lack of other options. Captain Glenn Maxwell will miss his second game in a row as he is isolating.
Melbourne Stars ended their losing streak at two games with the win over Adelaide Strikers on Monday.
Clint Hinchcliffe, Joe Clarke (wk), Nick Larkin, Joe Burns, Hilton Cartwright, Beau Webster, Xavier Crone, Qais Ahmad, Adam Zampa (c), Haris Rauf, Brody Couch
The Scorchers have a two game lead over the Stars over the course of BBL tournaments.
| Matches Played | PRS Won | MLS Won | Tie | NR | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Overall | 19 | 10 | 8 | 0 | 1 |
| Last 5 | 5 | 2 | 2 | 0 | 1 |
The Scorchers do not lose many games and the bookies are backing them again in this game.
After hitting four successive half centuries in the BBL, all eyes will be on Melbourne Stars’ opener Joe Clarke in this game.
Kurtis Patterson, Cameron Bancroft and Ashton Turner are our batting tips for Perth Scorchers. Patterson and Bancroft are more than capable top order players.
Joe Clarke, Clint Hinchcliffe and Nick Larkin are our batting recommendations for Melbourne Stars. Clarke can not be far off an England call-up.
For Perth Scorchers, Andrew Tye, Ashton Agar and Peter Hatzoglou are our bowling tips. With Tymal Mills no longer in the picture, there is more pressure on the other Scorchers bowlers.
For Melbourne Stars, Adam Zampa, Haris Rauf and Brody Couch are our bowling tips. Zampa is a smart spin bowler who will get some assistance from the surface in this game.
Both teams will be without experienced batters in this game. Arguably Colin Munro’s absence for Perth Scorchers is more of a loss than Glenn Maxwell’s for Melbourne Stars due to the batting form of Joe Clarke. We are predicting another victory for Perth Scorchers.
