Perth Scorchers

And Hassan Naraz not out on 15.

Our Perth Scorchers recently won in the T20 Spring Challenge.

The women's team, they got the win over the Melbourne Renegades by six wickets in the end.

So the Renegades finished at seven for 102.

Kumar Das not out on 79 and Hassan Miraz not out on... on 37.

The Scorchers won earlier today, T20 Spring Challenge over the Melbourne Renegades in the women's.

So nicely done to our Perth Scorchers as well for a WA perspective.

Just to reiterate around the grounds for you, AFL trade period continues on today.

So it's not so much an AFL state as it is a sporting state.

The Perth Scorchers are huge.

The Perth Wildcats are huge.

Perth Glory in the A-League, when they're winning, are huge.

Uh, no changes, no team name changes, nothing, nothing out of the ordinary.

Uh, as far as next year is concerned, yeah, there's a, there's enough time for at least one club to be sold and then, uh, Cricket Tasmania and, and w- the WA Cricket have both shown an interest in at least going to market to see what the options were, and the possibility of selling potentially 49% stakes into Hobart Hurricanes, which is Cricket Tasmania, and, and Perth Scorchers, which is, um, WA Cricket.

So they're two other teams that may move forward with the process once the Renegades sale has happened.

And also then the other Melbourne team, which is run by Cricket Victoria, which is the Stars, they would also look at a 49%, um, sale of the Stars, uh, but whilst retaining 51% of control of the Stars.

But we've gone...

So Cooper Connolly won the Big Bash for the fucking Scorchers once against the Heat-

Three years ago now

... and we're like, "Yep, [laughs] he's it."

Or stumpings

... speaking of it, um, the other one is, uh, who signed with Perth Scorchers, Zach Crawley.

I didn't see that one.

Yeah.

Talking to Luke Ronchi, the new coach of the Melbourne Renegades.

You played, uh, over at the Perth Scorchers, Luke, in the early days, and [clears throat] a lot of people in the BBL and the WBBL are envious of this culture.

This word culture that is a mysterious word in world sport, that the Scorchers have been able to build up in their system, and they've probably got a couple of natural advantages over there.

But how, how do you go ab- Is it important to you, like establishing some sort of culture when you're in one of these transient sort of leagues where you bring blokes together-

Is Zak Crawley playing Sydney Thunder? Have I imagined that?

No, Zak Crawley's playing over at Perth Scorchers.

Oh, is he?

But they are coming over to play Thunder, so.

I was

alongside Goss when he called the Perth Scorchers home in January, and I can only imagine how excited he'll be today.

We're

calling the game.

But I mean, there's a lot of change coming for the Renegades, but, um, yeah, we're pretty keen on making this last year a pretty memorable one for us.

They're probably gonna run second to my, uh, Perth Scorchers too, I'd imagine.

Uh, the girls over there.

Just don't forget where you are, Ex.
