SCO vs SIX, Match 39- Top Captain and Vice-Captain choices

If Perth Scorchers field first

Aaron Hardie (SCO): The youngster was touted the next big all-rounder in the Australian set-up. Hardie has scored 296 runs from nine matches and has also been at par with the ball in hand. He can bowl across various phases of the game and serves as a good challenge for the opposition batters.

Ben Dwarshuis (SIX): The wily left-arm pacer is a very good new ball bowler and can generate lateral movements with the new ball. Dwarshuis has scalped nine wickets this season but is likely to get more assistance in this venue.


If Sydney Sixers field first

Steve Smith (SIX): The Australian stalwart will be key for the Sixers as they head to the most important stage of the competition. In the last season, Smith whooped two centuries opening the batting for the Sydney-based community. He would be looking to replicate the past heroics once again this year.

Andrew Tye (SCO): The wily pacer has a very good record in this ground. In the last game, the veteran raced to 150 BBL wickets and also claimed a four-for to topple the table-toppers, Brisbane Heat. Tye has a good bouncer and some amazing slower ones apart from the stock pace-on deliveries. He can mix things well to bamboozle the opposition.

James Vince (SIX): The English top-order batter has blown hot and cold this season. He is a very good striker of the cricket ball but can also act according to the situation.
