Perth Scorchers vs Sydney Sixers kicks off a week of cricket that will determine who is crowned the Big Bash champion for the 2025/26 season. The winner of this clash will secure a place in Sunday’s final.
It was a strong finish to the regular season for the Sixers, supported by their Ashes stars of Steve Smith and Mitchell Starc. They made a late surge for the Qualifiers, winning five of their final six matches to snatch a top-two spot from the Hobart Hurricanes. However, they will be without Sam Curran for the Qualifier, with the all-rounder departing for England’s white-ball tour of Sri Lanka. Smith and Babar Azam will be hoping they avoid another on-field clash after the Pakistan batter’s tantrum during last Friday’s match.
The Scorchers have been the form team of the tournament, suffering just three defeats overall — two of them coming in the opening three matches. Young spinner Cooper Connolly will look to deliver again with the ball, while the explosive Finn Allen could pose serious problems for the Sixers with the bat.
