YT vs PRS Match Prediction & Analysis Sydney Thunder are back to their home venue as they search for a win after back-to-back losses. So far, they have won one of their two matches at the Sydney Showground Stadium this season. Skipper David Warner is in great touch and has scored consistently at the top. He needs support from his opening partner. Sam Konstas opened alongside him in the last outing but couldn’t make a big impact. For the Scorchers, things haven’t been consistent in either of the departments. The batting performances have swung from one extreme to another while the bowlers continue being ineffective. It is not a very high-scoring venue here in Sydney and the bowlers will play a key role in this match. Jason Behrendorff and Andrew Tye will be the ones to watch out for in the PRS squad. TEAMS PREVIEW Sydney Thunder Preview Sydney Thunder will be hoping for a comeback as they come to their home venue for the return match against Perth Scorchers. The last time they played this opposition, SYT chased down a 178-run target with 4 wickets in hand. While Warner and Matthew Gilkes delivered a good start in the top order, it was Sherfane Rutherford’s unbeaten 39 off 19 balls knock that got Thunder across the line. There have been some issues with the batting lineup since then. Warner has single-handedly carried Thunder’s batting efforts in the last couple of outings. While Sam Billings looked in good touch in the middle-order in the last game, he couldn’t convert his start into something more impactful. Oliver Davies and Matthew Gilkes are other key players in the middle-order who are expected to step up and deliver crucial knocks. Perth Scorchers Preview Perth Scorchers are at number 5 in the points table with 3 wins from 8 matches. 3 of their 5 losses have come in the last 3 games. They will be under pressure to turn things around in this game and settle scores with SYT. It won’t be an easy outing, however, for the Scorchers. They will be up against a strong pace attack on a bowling-friendly pitch. Andrew Tye should be hoping for a quick comeback after he went wicketless in the last match and conceded 60+ runs from his 4 Overs. While Scorchers can deliver a strong bowling performance and put the hosts under pressure in this match, the main concern is their batting. They need a solid start from Finn Allen and Sam Fanning. Both looked quite impressive in the last game and though Scorchers have constantly changed Allen’s opening partner, we reckon Fanning should get another chance here. Allen is a reliable and experienced batsman at the top. Cooper Connelly and skipper Ashton Turner are the big guns in the middle-order at 4 and 5 respectively and have delivered some impactful knocks this season. Weather Conditions It will be partly cloudy in Sydney on the match day with a high of 24 degrees Celsius. There is a rain prediction for the afternoon, a few hours before the game kicks off. It will also be raining in Sydney for two days before the game. SYT vs PRS Pitch Report It looks like a bowling-friendly pitch with plenty of help for the pacers. The average 1st innings score in the last 10 T20 matches here is 148 runs. SYT defended 156 in their last win here while Sixers chased down 164 with the game going right down to the last ball. We reckon a 170-run total will be a match-winning score at this venue. Toss: To Bowl Teams bowling first have won 6 of the last 10 matches at this venue. It is not easy to score big on this ground and if the bowling team gets a few early wickets, they can restrict the opposition to a par score.
