Perth Cricket Stadium pitch report for BBL 2023-23

Lateral movement during the first six overs is a staple at the Optus Stadium and therefore, fast bowlers are often the ones dominating proceedings here. Extra bounce is also on offer throughout the match.

Perth Scorchers have built their bowling attack to suit the pitch on offer and have the most dependable new-ball duo in  Jason Behrendorff and Jhyle Richardson.

The square boundaries of at Perth are huge. Bowlers can use them to their advantage and force the batsmen to clear the longer fence, just like Sam Curran did to claim 5 for 15 during the ENG vs AFG clash at recent T20 WC.
