The Perth Scorchers have named young paceman Mahli Beardman as a replacement for Jhye Richardson in their Boxing Day match against the Hobart Hurricanes at Optus Stadium. The Hurricanes won the toss and opted to field as both teams seek their second win of the season. Beardman previously played in the Scorchers’ rain-affected victory against the Sydney Sixers, where he took 0-28 in four overs. After suffering a record loss to Brisbane, the Scorchers aim to bounce back in front of their home crowd.
