The 9th match of the Big Bash League 2020-21 season will take place between Melbourne Stars and Perth Scorchers at the Aurora Stadium in Launceston on Wednesday, the 16th of December.
The Big Bash League is gaining tempo and Perth Scorchers are going to face Melbourne Stars in their second match of the season. The two teams have played 16 matches against each other, and both have come out with 8 wins. While the form for Perth Scorchers in the last five matches against the Stars has been as follows: L L W W W. Melbourne Stars is going to fight the match on the heels of two victories, against Brisbane Heat and Sydney Thunder, while Perth Scorchers lost their first match of the season against the Renegades. This is the first match the two teams will be playing at Launceston. The odds seem to favor a victory for the Stars and I have picked the most profitable player bets from the match, which will give you the most chances of winning big.
The Australian batsman displayed excellent form in the last season while playing for Melbourne Stars. Hilton Cartwright has a career average of 28.84 from 49 matches and his average last season playing for the stars was 38.33 from the 8 innings he came out to bat. If these numbers don't already paint a picture of how high the chances of winning this bet are, consider this statistic. He has played 2 matches against Perth Scorchers in his career, and his average against them is 77.00. In his first game of the season, he scored 46 runs against Brisbane Heat and remained not-out till he scored a victory for his team. While he did slip up in the last game,his average from the last five matches he played is 51.00. Cartwright just has to continue his performances with the bat, and continue playing as he has been, for us to get returns from the bet. Sportsbet.io has offered odds of 1.85 for Hilton Cartwright to score over 20.5 runs and this bet is a definite winner.
Nick Larkin, the Australian batsman, had a solid season playing for the Stars in the previous Big Bash League. Larkin has come out to bat in 22 innings in his career and has scored a total of 502 runs at 33.47. His average in the previous season of the BBL was 39.13 from 12 matches and his overall average with the team has been 35.08 from 22 matches. He has played 3 matches against Perth Scorchers and has an average of 30.00 from them. He has an average of 78.00 from his last 5 matches and 42.83 from his last 10 matches and he scored over 15.5 runs in 7 out of the 10 games. With statistics like these to his name, I have no doubt that Nick Larkin will score over 15.5 runs and Sportsbet.io has offered odds of 1.85 for Larkin to cross 16.5 runs.
The Australian all-rounder has had some excellent innings, with a career average of 30.31 from 87 innings, he has scored a total of 1970 runs. But if we look at his recent performances, they have been underwhelming. Mitchell Marsh has an average of 14.22 from his last 10 matches, and he scored over 20 runs in just one match of the 10. Even if we look at his last 5 performances against the Stars, his total from the last 5 matches was a mere 81 runs( 11, 7, 7, 15, 41*), and as we observe, he scored over the required target just once in his past 5 games against the Stars. Sportsbet.io has offered odds of 1.85 for Marsh to score under 24.5 runs and this bet is a no brainer.
