The Sydney Sixers lost to the Perth Scorchers in the Qualifier. They now face an elimination match at the SCG against the winner of the Knockout game. A win will send them to the BBL Final.

The Perth Scorchers proved too strong in their home Qualifier at Optus Stadium and they have secured a home final this Sunday. Perth posted 147, and while the chase stalled under pressure, Steve Smith once again stood up on the big stage, fighting hard as early wickets made the task difficult.
