After finishing in second place in the group stage during last season’s WBBL, Adelaide Strikers Women went on to win the tournament by beating Sydney Sixers by 10 runs in the final. Tahlia McGrath, the international all-rounder, will captain the side once more.
South African top order batter Laura Wolvaardt had a fine season last year hitting 403 runs and she comes into this match off the back of an impressive run of WT20I and ODI games against New Zealand Women. Georgia Adams and Katie Mack are other batters who we expect to be in the top three in the order.
Two of the top three bowlers in terms of wickets taken from the 2022-23 WBBL played for Adelaide Strikers Women and both are back in their squad again this season. Amanda-Jade Wellington will turn the ball on this pitch with Megan Schutt providing pace.
Adelaide Strikers ended last year’s tournament with four successive wins including lifting the trophy in the final.

With only five wins from 14 matches in last year’s tournament, Melbourne Stars Women finished in sixth place, two points from the knockout places. However, they got off to a winning start in this year’s campaign when they beat Sydney Sixers Women by 2 runs on Thursday.
All-rounder Annabel Sutherland was the only player to hit over 300 runs for Melbourne Stars Women across last year’s tournament but it was no surprise to see Meg Lanning top score on Thursday with 55 runs from 34 balls. Alice Capsey is another consistent run scorer in T20 cricket in the top three.
Only Sasha Moloney and Alice Capsey went wicketless for Melbourne Stars Women in their opening match with the other five bowlers coming into this match with confidence after dismissing at least one batter for Sydney Sixers Women. Annabel Sutherland has 10 wickets from her last three competitive matches.
Melbourne Stars Women had a narrow win on Thursday and impressed with both bat and ball.

After getting their season off to a winning start on Thursday, there will be plenty of confidence in the Melbourne Stars Women’s camp ahead of this game. However, they are up against Adelaide Strikers Women who have retained most of their team from last year who went all the way to lifting the trophy. We are predicting a close contest at the Karen Rolton Oval with Adelaide Strikers Women getting the win.
