Rauf returns for Scorchers showdown

Rauf is one of five additions to the squad from Thursday night against the Heat.

Beau Webster and Mark Steketee return from the PM's XI, whilst batters Campbell Kellaway and Nick Larkin have also been added.

Glenn Maxwell will miss the match after injuring his forearm muscle, whilst Nathan Coulter-Nile suffered a calf strain against the Heat and is aiming for a return towards the end of BBL|13.

English pace bowler Olly Stone makes way for Haris Rauf, and Joe Burns has not been considered for selection after being unwell.

Marcus Stoinis will captain the side in place of Glenn Maxwell.
