Adelaide Strikers
Adelaide Strikers got their first win of the BBL 09 at home against Perth Scorchers. It was a very good team performance, especially with Adelaide Strikers batting first in a rain-curtailed game that generally favors team batting second.
Against Perth Scorchers, the team of Adelaide Strikers batted brilliantly. Jake Weatherald and stand-in captain Alex Carey played outstandingly well while scoring runs at a fast rate. The bowling attack was led by Rashid Khan as he picked up crucial wickets, and he was supported well by Harry Conway.
The upcoming challenge against the in-form Melbourne Stars is going to be very tough for the Adelaide Strikers as they are playing this match away from home.
Players to watch out for Adelaide Strikers are Alex Carey, Jake Weatherald, Rashid Khan, and Billy Stanlake.
