STR vs SCO Dream11 Team Prediction & Preview: 10th Match, BBL 2019-20

Adelaide Strikers will take on Perth Scorchers in the 10th match of Big Bash League 2019-20 at Adelaide Oval in Adelaide. We will provide STR vs SCO Dream11 Prediction, Match Preview, and Probable Playing XI.

Adelaide Strikers:

The first match played by Adelaide Strikers was abandoned due to the visibility factor because smog had covered the ground as the second innings was in progress. Batting first, Strikers lost a couple of wickets in just two overs and looked in trouble, but Jake Weatherald and Alex Carey took charge and steadied the innings by scoring 42 and 45 runs, respectively. Later Jonathan Wells played a brilliant knock of 55 runs from just 32 balls and helped the Strikers in putting up a decent total of 161 runs.

They were able to bowl only 4.2 overs due to the smog and managed to pick up one wicket. Strikers were fortunate because their opposition was well above the D/L score, and Strikers would have lost the match if 5 overs had been completed. They would want to put up a better performance against Perth Scorchers and hopefully win the game.

Perth Scorchers:

After the disappointing performance in the first match, they made a very strong come back and won the last game by 11 runs. In the previous match, batting first Scorchers played brilliantly and posted a total of 196 runs. Bancroft 51 runs, and Mitchell Marsh 56 runs from 22 balls played brilliantly in that match.

The bowlers were right in the beginning and took some wickets, but in the middle overs they were neither able to control runs nor pick up wickets, but in the death overs, they managed to pick up some quick wickets and restricted the opponents to 185 runs and won the match by 11 runs. Chris Jordan and Fawad Ahmed picked up 2 wickets each, Joel Paris and Ashton Agar picked up one wicket each. They would want to continue their winning momentum and win their next match against Perth Scorchers.
