SIX vs SCO Dream11 prediction: Match preview

Defending champions Sydney Sixers look well poised to make it to their second consecutive BBL final as they take on the Perth Scorchers in the eliminator on Saturday. The easiest path to the Grand Final, the eliminator also offers its losing team a safety net, giving them another chance to make it via the challenger match. The winners of this game will therefore find themselves in the final while the losers will go on to play either the Sydney Thunder or the Brisbane Heat to get to the final. The winner of Saturday's game will also earn the privilege of hosting the final at their home ground.

At the end of the league stages, the Sixers found themselves in a dominant place, finish at the top of the table with 36 points from nine wins and five losses. The Scorchers had a tougher journey but overcame their initial shakiness to finish four points below the Sixers, in second place. The three-time champions will be looking to extend their record for the most BBL wins with the help of one of this season's best bowlers — Jhye Richardson — and batsman Colin Munro. Meanwhile, the Sixers boast the highest run-scorer of the season in Josh Philippe as well as veteran Daniel Christian who has been in fine form this season.
