Scorchers v Hurricanes prediction 12/1/2021

Jhye Richardson, Jason Behrendorff and Tye form the nucleus of what is an international-standard pace attack for the Scorchers. Throw in veteran leggie Fawad Ahmed and Mitch Marsh, and the Scorchers have clearly the best bowling line-up in the BBL. That is going to make life difficult for the the Hurricanes top order, though they have real class, too. The Scorchers batters are also a quality line-up. We think the Scorchers are the team to beat for the title. Our final Scorchers v Thunder prediction: Scorchers to make it five straight wins.
