Episode Details

The Perth Scorchers may be out of the tournament, but they delivered a fiery exit, crushing the reigning champions Guyana Amazon Warriors by 14 runs in a nail-biting thriller. Scorchers posted 135 after being sent in, while the Warriors, already locked into the final, fell short at 121. Despite a blistering 42 off 16 from Gurbaz, the Warriors crumbled under pressure, with Ashton Agar dismissing Shimron Hetmyer to seal the win. Scorchers’ bowlers, led by Ashton Turner’s three wickets, held firm. Batting struggled early — 78 for 8 — but Brody Couch and Dian Forrester’s 54-run stand turned things around. Couch smashed 43 off 30 with sixes and fours, while Forrester anchored with 35 not out. Even without a final berth, the Scorchers made a statement — and the Warriors now await their final opponent, set to be either San Francisco Unicorns or Desert Vipers.
