Aurora Stadium is not a stadium where you can just come out and start scoring. We are expecting an average-scoring yet interesting match ahead of us. Irrespective of who bats first, the first innings score is likely to be under 160 runs given the nature of the pitch.
Hobart Hurricane bowlers went for runs in the first match but here is an opportunity for them to bounce back. Shadab Khan is a player to watch out for.
Perth skipper Ashton Turner is expected to play an all-round role and is a contender for the Man of the Match award.
