Preview:
Perth comes into this one having just beaten the Heat by 40-runs on New Year’s Day, while the Canes are playing on short rest following Friday night’s home game against the Heat.
Hobart has enjoyed the better part of this matchup in recent times winning three straight games against the Scorchers, but on a bouncy Perth wicket, this game is far from a certainty.
Hobart has scored the fewest runs of any team in the competition so far, which could cause some problems on a fast wicket that demands quick shots and confident drives from batsman.
The Scorchers are also coming into this game on four days rest, so it’s probably worth taking the value on offer for Perth to win their second home game of the season.
