The deck is one that is preferred by the bowlers, especially the pacers. The batters will look to stay patient in the early stages of the clash and accelerate in the latter phase after getting an assessment of the actual conditions. The team winning the toss should look to bowl first.
Probable Playing XIs
Perth Scorchers
Finn Allen, Keaton Jennings, Cooper Connolly, Josh Inglis (wk), Ashton Turner (c), Matthew Spoors, Nick Hobson, Ashton Agar, Matthew Kelly, Andrew Tye, Jason Behrendorff

Probable Top Performers
Probable Best Batter: Matt Renshaw
Renshaw was in rollicking nick in the previous game during which he galloped his way to a 27-ball 54-run knock. He could be expected to shine once again.
Probable Best Bowler: Spencer Johnson
The left-arm pacer is expected to get back into the mix after a toe injury which kept him sidelined for the first two games of the campaign. He could be expected to carry forward the momentum from the T20I series against Pakistan.
