The Perth Scorchers, one of the most successful teams in Big Bash League history, are entering the 2024/25 season with their sights firmly set on reclaiming the championship after finishing third in BBL|13. With a decorated past, including five titles, they remain a powerhouse in the competition.
This season, the Scorchers have added depth to their squad, bringing in notable players like Finn Allen and Matthew Hurst. However, they’ve also experienced significant departures, such as Laurie Evans moving to the Melbourne Renegades. Key players like Josh Inglis, Ashton Turner, and Mitchell Marsh continue to anchor the team, providing both leadership and dynamic performances.
Their campaign begins on December 15, 2024, with a standalone opener against the Melbourne Stars at Optus Stadium, followed by a highly anticipated Boxing Day clash against last season’s champions, the Brisbane Heat. The schedule also includes a mix of prime-time home matches and strategically clustered away games to minimize travel strain
