Perth Scorchers are favourites to win
After 60 games in the 2021-22 Big Bash League, it all comes down to this final at the Marvel Stadium, Melbourne between Perth Scorchers and Sydney Sixers. The Scorchers finished top of the table with eleven wins from fourteen games. Sydney Sixers came 2nd in the group stage and have won the last two BBL tournaments. Read on as we preview this game. This final begins at 19:40 local time.
Perth Scorchers were runaway winners of the group stage and have beaten Sydney Sixers in all three of their fixtures so far this season.
Sydney Sixers have history on their side after winning the last two BBL tournaments. However, they do not have all of their best players available and a win will be a real tough ask.
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 won the toss and chose to bat first in the play-off game between the two sides at the Marvel Stadium last week. We predict that whichever skipper wins the toss they will choose to bat first in the final.
It will be a good batting wicket at the Marvel Stadium and we expect a par score to be over 185 in this match. Bowlers will have to hold their nerve and not get too despondent if they concede runs.
Thunderstorms are forecast during the hours of play with a high of 22 degrees on Friday evening in Melbourne.

Sydney Sixers have a number of unavailable players with a mixture of those in isolation and some carrying injuries. Leading run scorer Josh Philippe will definitely miss out whereas skipper Moises Henriques and middle order batter Daniel Hughes are expected to play.
