James Vince is their highest scorer as he has scored 195 runs in 7 fixtures at an average of 28. The Sixers have struggled with their batting unitβs inconsistency and experienced players like Josh Phillippe and Moises Henriques need to score big numbers to give the team much required confidence.

Sydney Sixers are on a winning streak but they have struggled with the middle order and their spin attack. Experienced players are failing to score a big number for the Sydney Sixers.
Perth Scorchers, on the other hand, have built a strong team with every win. They are well balanced with a good depth in batting and the bowers are doing a good job. We predict a win for Perth Scorchers on Tuesday.
