Toss Prediction
Perth Scorchers have managed to win tosses in their previous three encounters against Sydney Thunder and are likely to continue their good luck in this match as well. However, there is a piece of good news for Thunder in it. In all three games where Scorchers won the toss, Thunder emerged as the winner of the game.
Win Possibility
While Thunder will be low-key hoping for Scorchers to win the toss (Superstition!), the form Scorchers are in, it is difficult to pick Thunder as possible winners. A good team with red-hot form will be our pick over the superstition.
Predicted powerplay score and first innings total
The Sydney Pitch has so far assisted both batters and pace bowlers. If the team batting first can play out the first few overs cautiously, they are likely to put on a decent total on this pitch. The predicted powerplay score is expected to be between 45-50. The first innings total is expected to be between 155-167.
