HHU vs PSC Prediction, 11Wickets Fantasy Cricket Tips: Playing XI, Pitch Report and Injury Update – BBL 2020-21, Match 47

Match Details:

The 47th match of the Big Bash League (BBL) 2020-21 will be played between Perth Scorchers and Hobart Hurricanes at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in Melbourne.

The match is scheduled to start at 10:35 AM IST (04:05 PM local time). It will be live on Sony Ten Network and can be streamed live on Sony LIV.

Preview:

Perth Scorchers’s winning streak was ended by Sydney Sixers a few days ago, but as the saying goes, a good team isn’t one that doesn’t fall but rises up every time after it falls. Scorchers did just that in their next game after the defeat, they thrashed Brisbane Heat.

Hobart Hurricanes, like Scorchers, have risen a few steps in the points table following their victory against Sydney Thunder in the first game. However, they have blown hot and cold and have lacked consistency. Now that Tim Paine and Matthew Wade are back in the team, fans will be hoping for a more clinical show from the Hurricanes day in day out.
