Venue | WACA, Perth |
Defending champs Perth Scorchers have started their title defence brilliantly. They have played two games and emerged victorious in both encounters. They defeated Hobart Hurricanes women in the last game. Chasing a target of 110, the team cruised to a win by 8 wickets.
Meanwhile, Melbourne Stars have not had an ideal start to the tournament. They have played two matches, losing both comprehensively. They were thrashed by Sidney Sixers women in the last game by 27 runs. Its early days in the tournament and teams would not want to stay too far behind in the race thus this game is very important for Melbourne Stars women.
WACA is one of the fastest wickets in Australia. It has pace and bounce to help the fast bowlers. Players who are good on the backfoot enjoy batting here.
Plenty of rain is predicted on the match day and we may see a shorted or even an abandoned game. The good news is that the drainage system in Perth is good so if the rain stays away during the match hours, we can have a full game.

Perth Scorchers women are on a winning run so they are not likely to change the combination. Melbourne Stars, on the other hand, have lost both games but we don’t think they will make changes to their combination as well.
The head to head stats are in favour of Perth Scorchers women.

The Perth opener is one of the greatest limited-overs cricketers. She started the tournament with a solid 44 against Sydney Sixers women. Devine is very attacking in nature which makes her a match-winner on her day.
Perth Scorchers women are laced with plenty of power hitters and Mooney is another one of Perth’s match-winners. Mooney scored unbeaten 38 runs in the last game and took her team to a win. She will be eyeing to continue from where she left off and play a bigger inning against the Stars.
Another good all-around option to have. Sutherland is a very experienced batter and scored 45 runs off 22 balls in the first game against Brisbane Heat women. She also is a very good bowling option and thus is worthy of having in the team.
She is known to be someone very destructive in nature. Capsey is still very young and doesn’t have a great record to boast about. But, these are early days for her and a good show in the WBBL will give her plenty of limelight.
She is a top-class bowler who has been in great form. In the tournament so far, King has taken five wickets in two games, including a three-wicket haul against Hobart Hurricanes women.
