Big Bash League - Adelaide Strikers vs Perth Scorchers

Adelaide Strikers will take on Melbourne Stars in the 39th match of the Big Bash League 2021/22 at the Adelaide Oval in Adelaide on Saturday.

The two teams are currently in a bit of a desperate situation and need to stack up points quickly.

Adelaide Strikers have the wind blowing in their sails after two extremely impressive victories, including their most recent conquest over the table-toppers Perth Scorchers. That win moved the Strikers to fifth position in the BBL11 table and would’ve boosted the morale in the camp.

Melbourne Stars, meanwhile, are trying to build winning momentum. They won their last encounter against Melbourne Renegades by six wickets and are just below Adelaide Strikers in the table. The Stars have 18 points to their name and this could prove to be an exciting contest between two closely-matched sides.
