MS-W vs SS-W WBBL 10 Preview

Melbourne Stars Women have registered big wins over Sydney Sixers and Hobart Hurricanes after opening defeat to Perth Scorchers. With two wins and a defeat from three games, and with an NRR of 0.775, they are placed among the top three sides of the competition as of November 7. Meg Lanning and young Indian star Yastika Bhatia have emerged as the backbone of Stars’ batting line-up this season. With the ball, Sophie Day and Kim Garth have picked up five wickets each, i.e., the highest among all Melbourne Stars bowlers in WBBL 2024.

The Sydney Sixers Women are ranked seventh on the WBBL 2024 points table for securing just two wins from four matches. In a bid to climb up the ladder and improve their dismal NRR of -0.407, Ellyse Perry and co. need to defeat Stars at the latter’s home ground and gain some winning momentum going ahead. Star all-rounders like Ashleigh Gardner and captain Perry herself need to come up clutch in the game alongside in-form overseas stars like Sarah Bryce and Sophie Ecclestone if the Sixers are aiming to put their best foot forward.
