Sydney Thunder dominate Perth Scorchers with a comprehensive 61 runs win
The Thunder registered a commanding 61-run win over Scorchers in the 33rd match of BBL 2024-25 at the Sydney Showground Stadium. Batting first, the Thunder posted a competitive 158/7, thanks to a steady 53 from Sam Konstas and a blistering unbeaten 37 off 13 balls by Player of the Match Tom Andrews. The Scorchers’ bowling was led by Lance Morris, who claimed 3/43 but proved expensive.
In reply, the Scorchers collapsed to 97 all out in 17.2 overs, unable to counter the disciplined Thunder attack. Chris Green (3/13) and Nathan McAndrew (2/21) shone with the ball, dismantling the Scorchers’ lineup. Notable contributions for Scorchers came from Aaron Hardie (22) and Jason Behrendorff (17 not out), but a lack of partnerships cost them. Shaꦜrp ꩲfielding, including two crucial run-outs, sealed the win for the Thunder, boosting their playoff hopes.
