The 44th match of the Big Bash League will take place between Brisbane Heat and Perth Scorchers at the Docklands Stadium also known as the Marvel Stadium, in Melbourne on Wednesday, January 19.
Perth Scorchers and Brisbane Heat will face off for the first time in the season, at a point when both teams have 5 wins from 10 matches, and Perth Scorchers are up just 1 point to Brisbane Heat, the two teams will face each other. Perth Scorchers are looking extremely strong, and have only lost one match since they have assembled their full squad. Both teams have lost a match to Sydney Thunder, Sydney Sixers, and Adelaide Strikers, wherein the Scorchers have also lost to the Renegades, while the Heat have also lost to the Hurricanes. Scorchers are the favourites to win with their recent return to form, but with the first match on the pitch for the season, who knows the result of the match. I have picked the strongest team based bets in the market, which will bring you a return from the games.
I have a winning bet with great odds for you. This is a frontier where Perth Scorchers have an obvious advantage over Brisbane Heat. I have tallied the data from their games this season, and it is pretty obvious to go for this bet. While Brisbane Heat - 3, 6, 7, 4, 3 - have managed to hit a total of 23 sixes from their last 5 games, Perth Scorchers - 9, 6, 7, 7, 7 - have exceeded that with 36 sixes in their last 5 matches. For anyone who is not great with quick calculations, that's an average of 4.6 for the Heat and 7.2 for the Scorchers. Not only that, the Scorchers have conceded 14 sixes from the last 5 matches, at an average of 2.8, Brisbane Heat have conceded 27 sixes in their last 5 games at an average of 5.4, almost double the number of sixes conceded by the Scorchers. This is because the Scorchers have scored the most match sixes in the last 5 games, while Heat have hit the most match sixes in 1 game from their last 5 matches. Sportsbet.io is offering odds of 1.86 for Perth Scorchers to hit the most match sixes and you should take it while you have the chance.
This is another bet which has good odds, considering the chances of this happening are pretty likely. Perth Scorchers have been displaying an aptitude with their opening partnerships since the beginning of the season, but their partnerships significantly improved once their English players could rejoin the squad. Jason Roy and Liam Livingstone have been opening in the last 6 matches for the Perth Scorchers. From the six matches, they have accumulated a total of 332 runs - 57, 41, 23, 12, 123, 76 - from their opening partnerships and crossed the 23.5 runs mark in 4 out of the 6 matches. This is an average of 55.33 runs per match from their opening partnerships! While this is the first match of the season at the Marvel Stadium, if Roy and Livingstone keep up their play with the bat, they are bound to reach the target. LeoVegas.com has offered odds of 1.86 for Total Runs from Perth Scorchers opening partnership to be over 23.5.
The final winning bet that I have identified again revolves around the big boundaries. In this season the teams have been hitting sixes on demand. I mentioned previously how Perth Scorchers have an average of 7.2 sixes per match from their last 5 matches, and Brisbane Heat have an average of 4.6 sixes per match from 5 games. This alone adds up to 11.8 sixes expected from the match which is definitely conducive for our bet. While Brisbane has managed to hit fewer sixes in the past few matches, their season average from 9 complete matches is 5.77 with a total of 52 sixes. Since this is the first match of the season at Marvel Stadium, I pulled the records of matches held there previously. In the last 5 matches at Marvel Stadium, the total number of 6's hit were 57, at an average of 11.4. The number of sixes was over 10.5 in 3 out of the 5 matches, which also bodes well for our bet. Sportsbet.io has offered odds of 1.77 for the total match sixes to be over 10.5 and I have already placed my money on the bet.
