Preview:
A franchise can sign as many superstars as they want, but history will testify that a team cannot be successful if they don’t gel together as a unit. Thankfully, Sydney Sixers have got bot god great individual talents, and also have gelled well as a unit. They have won 4 of their 6 games, while 2 matches were washed out.
They have been absolutely prolific and will start this game as the favourites. Perth Scorchers will have a mountain to climb since neither their team looks as good as Sixers on paper, nor have their on-field performances been on the money. They have won only one game so far and will aim to turn things around before it is too late.
