- Scorchers vs Sixers: Sun, Jan 25, 3.15am ET / 8.15am GMT / 7.15pm AEDT
It just had to be. Perth and Sydney will contest the Big Bash League Final for the sixth time, only days after the Scorchers hammered the Sixers by 48 runs in the Qualifier. It's also a rematch of the rain-affected season opener, a five-wicket victory – again – for Perth.
They were actually doing a solid job on Finn Allen, who leads the six count and will almost certainly rise to the summit of the runs leaderboard on Sunday, before he finally cracked Mitchell Starc.
Allen made just 19 off his first 17, but ended with 49 from 30. Although the Scorchers have five BBL titles to their name, Allen is out to secure his first. Starc vs Allen is one of two absorbing head-to-head showdowns on the cards at Perth Stadium, after Mahli Beardman's dismissal of Smith.
However, the advantage lies firmly with the Scorchers men. Not only are they playing at home, but they've had four full days of rest, whereas the Sixers are playing their fourth game of the week, with the previous three taking place in Brisbane, Perth and Sydney.
