Perth Stadium is renowned for its signature pace, steep bounce, and lightning-fast outfield, making it arguably the most hostile surface for visiting batters in the BBL. Early in the innings, the new ball will zip through to the keeper, providing significant assistance to seamers. However, once the initial movement subsides, the true nature of the deck allows batters to play through the line, rewarding aggressive stroke play. The hard surface rarely offers much turn for spinners, but the long boundaries provide a cushion for those who vary their pace. Expect a high-scoring thriller if the top order survives the powerplay.

Perth Scorchers: Mitchell Marsh, Finn Allen, Cooper Connolly, Josh Inglis (wk), Aaron Hardie, Ashton Turner (c), Laurie Evans, Jhye Richardson, Luke Holt, David Payne, Mahli Beardman, Nick Hobson, Brody Couch, Sam Fanning
