Brisbane Heat Women (BH-W) are all set to take on Melbourne Stars Women (MS-W) in Match 36 of the Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL) 2024 on Friday, November 22, at Allan Border Field in Brisbane. With both teams coming off completely different results in their last games, this promises to be an interesting showdown.
Brisbane Heat Women
Brisbane Heat Women are flying high this season, sitting comfortably in third place with five wins out of eight games. Their last outing was an absolute masterclass against the Stars Women, where Lucy Hamilton blew everyone away with a jaw-dropping spell of 5/8. Shikha Pandey chipped in with two wickets, bundling the Stars out for 138.
Jemimah Rodrigues (45) and Charli Knott (35*) starred as Brisbane made short work of the chase, wrapping it up with over two and a half overs to spare. They’ll be brimming with confidence and looking to bag another win against the struggling Stars.
Melbourne Stars Women
It’s been a season to forget for Melbourne Stars Women. With just two wins from eight games, they’re languishing at the bottom of the table. Their last match against Sydney Thunder wasn’t any better, as their batting flopped again, managing just 108/9.
Sophie Reid top scored with 21 runs but star players like Annabel Sutherland, Meg Lanning, and Marizanne Kapp failed to deliver. Kapp tried to make up for it with the ball, taking three wickets, but the Thunder chased the target comfortably. The Stars will be desperate to turn things around and salvage some pride.
