Perth Scorchers Team News & Playing 11
Half-centuries from Cameron Bancroft and Ashton Turner took the Scorchers to a five-wicket win over Hobart Hurricanes in the last match. The latter has scored the most runs for his side this BBL and it will be crucial that he gets a good knock against the Strikers. Ashton Agar and Matthew Kelly were the pick of the bowlers with two wickets each. Agar has now taken eight wickets in as many matches and the team will need the left-arm spinner to bowl well in this match.

Adelaide Strikers Team News & Playing 11
Alex Carey and Colin Ingram made vital contributions of 32 and 68 respectively to help their team post a match-winning total of 173 in the last game against Melbourne Renegades. Travis Head has departed to re-join the Australian ODI squad and so now it will be mainly up to stand-in skipper Ingram and Carey to score the big runs. Ben Laughlin, Billy Stanlake and Rashid Khan all took two wickets apiece at very good economy rates to restrict the Renegades to 147. Rashid Khan (14 wickets in 9 matches) is amongst the top three bowlers of the BBL 07 and the leg-spinner will be the main weapon for the Strikers with the ball.
