PER vs HBH Match Prediction - Jan 12, 2021

The business half of the Big Bash League is going on and we have two excellent teams playing this match.

The Perth Scorchers are making the most of their home conditions and have won their previous four matches. A poor start to the tournament has meant that the Scorchers are still not in the top-4.

One of the teams under threat from the rising Perth Scorchers is Hobart Hurricanes.

An excellent start to its campaign saw it lead the table for the first half but it has since fallen to third place.

We think the Hurricanes also enjoy the fast and bouncy conditions expected for your match which will make for an interesting contest.

Perth Scorchers vs Hobart Hurricanes BBL 2020-21 is going to be played at the Perth Stadium, Perth on the 12th of January 2021.

PER vs HBH Team Previews

Perth Scorchers

The Perth Scorchers are really enjoying playing at their home venue and would want to win this last match of this leg in Perth as well. The team is hitting its stride at just the right time in the BBL and is currently one of the most dangerous teams to come across.

Not only is its batting very strong and powerful but the bowling is dominating other teams. Jhye Richardson is now the highest wicket-taker of the tournament and we think talk about a possible return to the national team would already be floating around.

Liam Livingstone and Jason Roy form a very dangerous opening partnership but that is just the tip of the iceberg. Players like Colin Munro, Josh Ingis, Ashton Turner, and Mitchell Marsh make Perth a batting powerhouse.

WIth Jhye Richardson, Jason Behrendorff, and Andrew Tye picking up wickets regularly, they are going to be a hard team to beat and seem to hold all the cards against the Hobart Hurricanes.

Hobart Hurricanes

Two losses in their previous two matches have taken the wind out of the sails of the Hobart Hurricanes campaign. A bit troublingly, the most recent loss came against Sydney Thunder at the Perth Stadium where the Hobart batsmen struggled to score runs.

This is a high-scoring venue and so the team will need to be at its best to match against the Perth Scorchers.

One bad performance does not make it a bad batting lineup, though.

Ben McDermott, Darcy Short, Dawid Malan, Peter Handscomb, Colin Ingram, and Tim David all make for a fine batting order. There is class, power, and depth. At its best, this batting lineup can easily match the Perth Scorchers.

The bowling is a bit spin-heavy with Sandeep Lamichhane, Darcy Short, and Johan Botha in the attack. Nathan Ellis and Scott Boland lead the seam bowling unit with support from Nick Winter.

If Ellis can get back to his best death bowling form and Scott Boland can pick up a few early wickets, the Hobart Hurricanes could have a shot of winning.

Pitch and Conditions

The conditions at Perth are very good for cricket. The sun is expected to be out and there is nothing that should cause an interruption. The pitch is hard and fast which makes for exciting T20 cricket.

The fast bowlers are going to be able to get some purchase from the pitch but the batsmen will also get value for their shots.

A score of around 170 is par batting first.

PER vs HBH Betting Tips

We think this is a good match to back the Hobart Hurricanes in. They are not the favorites but a look at their team shows just how dangerous they can be. We think they are bound to bounce back after a couple of slow matches now that they have a fair idea of the conditions to expect.

Bet on the Hobart Hurricanes to win.
