Watch Perth Scorchers vs Brisbane Heat live stream: Big Bash Final preview
A record-breaking fifth Big Bash League title is in reach of Perth Scorchers, as they take on battling Brisbane Heat in today’s showpiece final at Perth Stadium.
The Scorchers come into this showdown as runaway favourites, having finished on top of the BBL|12 table, with home advantage as well as good form on their side.
The Heat have meanwhile had too shown plenty of grit to get to this stage. They negotiated three play-off finals away from home to qualify after ending the regular season in fifth place.
Brisbane booked their place in the final with a backs-to-the-wall four-wicket win over the much-fancied Sydney Sixers on Thursday at the Sydney Cricket Ground, thanks in large part to a steady 48 not out stand from Michael Neser.
The Scorchers have the quality as well as a partisan crowd behind them, but the Heat undoubtedly have momentum.
Key to who wins could come down to how Brisbane cope without duo Usman Khawaja and Marnus Labuschagne, who have both departed for international duty with India and Australia.
