Perth Scorchers securing their spot in the Big Bash final for the seventh year is incorrect. This is the sixth season of the Big Bash League and the Scorchers have made the final for the fifth time. They have won the title decider twice and lost twice.

Hi Johnson,

You are correct and this has been updated. Thanks.

Abigail apologises for her lack of cricket knowledge and looks forward to the ratings period starting in a few weeks when this will be less problematic – and she can instead let her superstar knowledge of The Bachelor shine!
