"We are in a good position, but are not complacent. We would be going full strength because we know a victory against Perth Scorchers would help us move closer to semi-final berth.
We would try and win the game and extend our 10- match winning streak by putting our best foot forward," Hodge was quoted as saying by PTI on Saturday.
Perth are fifth in the table after one loss and a no-result. A defeat today will put the Australian side out of the reckoning.
"We know Perth Scorchers are a depleted side but that also takes away pressure from the youngsters who would play freely and can be dangerous. A good performance can make a difference. We have a tough task on our hands, but a win would help us," said Hodge.
