Jason Roy twisted his ankle in a training session in a freak accident. Perth Scorchers skipper Ashton Turner provided an update on the situation, saying Roy would go through a late fitness test before the final.
When asked how Jason Roy injured himself, Turner replied it was an innocuous incident, with the opening batsman making himself look like a clown.
In Jason Roy’s absence, Cameron Bancroft was promoted to the top of the order against Brisbane Heat. The move worked exceptionally well for the Scorchers as the opening pair of Livingstone and Bancroft stiched together a 114-run partnership.
Jason Roy’s BBL season so far
The English batsman has made a considerable impact at the top of the order with some quick-fire knocks. In 12 matches, Jason Roy has scored 355 runs at an average of 32.27, while his strike rate reads 130.51. His best of 74* came against Hobart Hurricanes.
Sydney Sixers and Perth Scorchers will be facing each other for the fourth time this season, with the latter losing two and winning once. The two teams have a healthy rivalry as it will be the fourth time they will meet face off in a BBL final.
