Perth Scorchers Team News & Playing 11
Shaun and Mitchell Marsh will return for this semi-final clash and the Marsh brothers will be crucial for the Scorchers with the bat. There will also be plenty of hopes pinned on Ashton Turner - the team's leading run-getter - as well as on skipper Adam Voges who struck an unbeaten fifty in the last game. Matthew Kelly, Jhye Richardson and Mitchell Johnson have been impressive with the ball and the trio will be the biggest threat for the Hurricanes.

Perth Scorchers vs Hobart Hurricanes Prediction
Perth Scorchers have a mighty 75% win record against Hobart Hurricanes. Out of the eight matches played between these two teams in the past, the Scorchers have won six of those including the last five straight. They also have the advantage of playing on their home ground where they have won all of their five matches this season. The Hurricanes on the other hand will miss the services of their star player D’Arcy Short on whom they have relied so heavily with the bat. The hosts certainly have the upper hand here which is why we predict them to win this match and make the finals day.
