BBL 2024-25 Match 7: Hobart Hurricanes vs Perth Scorchers Dream11 Prediction

155

This will be the seventh game of the Big Bash League (BBL) 2024-25. Hobart Hurricanes will challenge the Perth Scorchers at the Bellerive Oval. The match will start on 21st December 2024 at 10:30 AM IST. 

Hobart Hurricanes got bundled out for just 74 runs in their first game of this season. Their batters will face another big challenge against Perth’s top-class pace attack. Hobart’s batting is not giving a lot of promise and the big names like Matthew Wade, Shai Hope, Tim David and Ben McDermott must step up in this game.

Perth Scorchers, meanwhile, won the first game of this season against the Stars. Josh Inglis’ inclusion will further bolster their batting. They have the best pace attack in the tournament and they’ll be looking for another good performance in this match. They will be eyeing their second consecutive win.

HUR vs SCO BBL Dream11 Pitch Report

The pitch at the Bellerive Oval will be an excellent one for batting. There will be some help for the pacers with the new ball. The dimensions here are small and there isn’t much help for the spinners with the new ball. Scores in the range of 150-170 are expected. Teams may prefer chasing if they win the toss.  

Fantasy Value from Pitch Report

• Batters will be important alongside the new ball bowlers. 

• Perth’s bowling is strong so try to fit in all their bowlers in your fantasy teams.
