ST-W vs BH-W Preview: Sydney Thunder Women

Sydney Thunder Women’s team is placed at the top of the 2024 WBBL points table for securing emphatic wins over Hobart Hurricanes and defending champions Adelaide Strikers. Georgia Voll and Phoebe Litchfield have both tallied over 100 runs this season to lead the batting charts for the Thunder off late. 

With the ball, left-arm spinner Samantha Bates has emerged as their leading wicket-taker while Sri Lankan captain Chamari Athapaththu will pose a formidable threat to Thunder opponents through her all-round skills.

ST-W vs BH-W Preview: Brisbane Heat Women

After winning two matches upfront, Brisbane Heat lost their subsequent two games against Hobart Hurricanes and Perth Scorchers to slip to number four on the WBBL 2024 points table. Sisters Grace Harris and Laura Harris are the only two cricketers in the Heat line-up to have scored more than 100 runs this season so far. The likes of Georgia Redmayne and Jemimah Rodrigues will be expected to come up clutch with the bat if the Brisbane Heat is to reacquire some winning momentum going ahead in the competition.

ST-W vs BH-W Pitch Report: How Will The WACA Surface Behave?

The conditions at the WACA Ground in Perth will be expected to favour pacers. However, spinners like Alana King have made considerable impact with the ball off late at the venue. The average first innings total here this WBBL 2024 season amounts to just 132. The captain winning the toss will likely opt to bat first, considering teams putting runs on the board have won both their games so far at the venue in the past couple of weeks.
