Canberra is expected to have a hot and humid weather on the match day and we expect no weather or rain interruptions in this match.
Manuka Oval is a good placid track where batsmen can score runs freely once they are set. Bowlers may enjoy the seam movement with the new ball and trouble the batsmen. We expect 160-170 runs in this match.
Chasing teams have won the last 6 matches played at this venue and no score is safe on this pitch and both captains will look to choose the safe option in the knockout game.
Perth Scorchers have a strong batting line-up with all the top-6 players scoring runs consistently. Brisbane Heat has found new players scoring runs in every match and found ways to score runs consistently. Brisbane Heat have a strong bowling attack with good mix of pacers and spinners while Perth Scorchers lack the depth in spin department. Brisbane heat have all-rounders Marnus Labuschagne, Lewis Gregory, and Ben Laughlin while Scorchers lack an effective fifth bowling option in their playing XI. We expect Brisbane Heat to win this match as they have form and momentum on their side.
