Win Possibility

Perth Scorchers will be favorites against Sydney Sixers as the side has been pretty consistent in the tournament, and likely to continue that momentum. Ashton Turner-led side dominated their last game as they registered 10-run win after scoring 212 in the 1st innings. Stevie Eskinazi (54) and Cameron Bancroft (95 off 50) batted brilliantly on the day to propel team's total followed by impressive bowling from skipper in second innings. Right arm off-break Ashton Turner picked two wickets in that game. 

24-year-old Aaron Hardie is the top run-getter (458 in 14 innings) in the tournament and will be crucial for the side in the knockout game. Josh Inglis is another prolific batter who will have lot of responsibilities. Meanwhile Andrew Tye is among the leading wicket takers in the tournament. Scorchers have bunch of in-form players in their squad and as per our prediction they are more likely to win the game and qualify for the summit-clash.
