Perth Scorchers vs Sydney Thunder | Best Team Bets in the Market

The 34th match of the Big Bash League will take place between Perth Scorchers vs Sydney Thunder at the Perth Stadium also known as Optus Stadium in Perth on Saturday, the 9th of January.

Perth Scorchers and Sydney Thunder will clash for the 2nd time this season, with the first match being a win for the Thunder. Jason Roy and Liam Livingstone returned to the Scorchers right after the last game with Sydney Thunder, and what a comeback Perth has made since then. While Sydney Thunder are on top of the table, Scorchers got their first win just a couple of matches ago, and are now on a three-win streak. While nobody can predict the result of the match, which is the first match for the Scorchers at their home ground this season, I have picked the top markets where the teams can win you big money.

Total Opening Partnership for Perth Scorchers to be over 22.5 runs

This bet is a winner for all the right reasons. Jason Roy and Liam Livingstone have been opening for the Perth Scorchers for the last 4 games since they came back to play for the team and the English batsmen have really come through. In the 4 matches they have scored a total of 146 runs (35, 57, 41, 23) from their opening partnerships, at an average of 36.50, they scored over 22.5 runs in all 4 matches. Not only that, even in the last match between these teams, when Inglis and Munro were opening, they managed to score 23 runs from the opening partnership, which speaks well for their confidence. LeoVegas is offering odds of 1.87 for Perth Scorchers to have an opening partnership over 22.5 runs

Sydney Thunder to hit the most Match 4's

I have a bet here that will allow you to almost double your money! This is a frontier where Thunder have an obvious advantage over the Scorchers. Perth Scorchers have hit a total of 86 fours (12, 7, 8, 11, 19, 11, 18) from the 7 matches they have played this season, this is an average of 12.29 fours per match.

You may have observed that the Scorchers crossed 15 fours only twice, while Sydney Thunder had an average of 15.0 fours. Now that we have established that Thunder have been hitting more fours than the Hurricanes, let's look at the number of fours being conceded by the teams. Sydney Thunder has conceded 76 fours from 7 matches at an average of 10.86 fours per match, while Perth Scorchers have conceded 73 fours from 6 innings at an average of 12.16.

Sydney Thunder to hit the most Match 6's

I have a bet here that is not only a winner but will allow you to double your money. In the 6 complete matches of the season, Perth Scorchers have hit a total of 27 sixes(2, 5, 3, 2, 9, 6), while Sydney Thunder have hit a total of 53 sixes (4, 9, 5, 12, 10, 9, 4) from their 7 matches. If numbers aren't your thing, let me simplify that for you, that's an average of 4.5 sixes per match by the Hurricanes and 7.57 sixes per match by the Thunder. That is a difference of 3 sixes per match, which is automatically conducive for our bet. You might also observe that the Scorchers managed to score over Sydney Thunder's average of 7.57 in only one match.
