Perth Scorchers vs Melbourne Stars Prediction & Betting Tips 2024

We believe Sam Fanning would play a pivotal role in this campaign. Last season he only played one game but we expect him to be a mainstay this term and to score well in the upcoming game.

Hilton Cartwright was one of the most consistent batsmen for Melbourne Stars last season as he scored 209 with an average of 41.80 which makes us believe he will score well in the upcoming game.

Perth Scorchers vs Melbourne Stars Betting Odds

Perth Scorchers to have a better opening partnership than Melbourne Stars

Melbourne Stars and Perth Scorchers go head to head in the opening game after both sides had contrasting campaigns last season. Melbourne Starts struggled to make an impact as they won four of the ten matches and were eliminated in the group stages. On the other hand, Perth Scorchers had a good run in the group stages as they ended up third on the table and made the playoffs where they were beaten by Adelaide Strikers. Both sides went head to head in the group stages and Perth Scorchers dominated the game from the start as they won the game with seven wickets to spare. Perth Scorchers had a better opening partnership on the day which makes us believe they would once again have a better opening stand in the upcoming game.
