The Perth Scorchers piled up a massive 257/6 as they completely dismantled a Shaheen Afridi-led Brisbane Heat side in the 6th match of the ongoing BBL 2025-26 at the Gabba in Brisbane.
This massive 257/6 now stands as the second-highest team total in BBL history. However, the honor of scoring the highest-ever total remains with the Melbourne Stars.
The Melbourne Stars’ 273 against the Hobart Hurricanes in January 2022 remains the highest-ever total the Big Bash League has ever seen.
