Hobart Hurricanes Women Team News & Playing 11
HBHW Team News
In the last game against Sydney Sixers, Hobart Hurricanes brought in Emma Manix-Geeves as a replacement for Emily Smith who has been denied further participation in this year's WBBL after she received a ban for breaching Cricket Australia's anti-corruption code. Meg Phillips was promoted to the opening spot but the strategy failed and Nicola Carey might be asked to open the batting again alongside Erin Fazackerley. The Hurricanes are coming off a win and they could be tempted to retain the entire line-up for this upcoming match.
HBHW Key Players
Heather Knight: She is a key figure at the top of the batting order as well as a handy option with the ball. The allrounder has scored the most runs for Hobart Hurricanes this WBBL. She has smashed two fifties in the tournament - an unbeaten 61 in the reverse encounter against Brisbane Heat followed by a 77 against Sydney Thunder.
Nicola Carey: The left-handed batter has made a couple of decent contributions with the bat. She struck 60 not-out last month versus Melbourne Stars and is coming off another unbeaten half-century in the last match versus Sydney Sixers. Carey has also taken eight wickets with her medium pace.
Belinda Vakarewa: She is currently the tournament's second-highest wicket-taker with 15 wickets in 9 matches at an impressive economy rate of 6.13. The fast bowler returned outstanding figures of 4-1-19-4 in the last match against Sydney Sixers and will look to deliver another strong performance on Friday.
HBHW Recent Form
Hobart Hurricanes are having a rough time in this year's Women's Big Bash League. They have manged to win only three out of their ten matches played so far and are currently lying second from the bottom on the WBBL 2019 points table with seven points. The Hurricanes, after registering wins in their first two matches, faced defeats in their next six completed matches. However, they have managed to break their losing streak with a convincing five-wicket win over Sydney Sixers in their last game.

Brisbane Heat Women Team News & Playing 11
BRHW Team News
Brisbane Heat made only one change to their side in the previous match against Melbourne Renegades - they dropped Mikayla Hinkley and replaced her by Lilly Mills. The latter neither got to bat or bowl and so the team might want to give her another game. The opening positions will continue to be held by Beth Mooney and Maddy Green. Jess Jonassen opened the bowling last time out and the left-arm spinner could be leading the attack again.
BRHW Key Players
Beth Mooney: With 532 runs at an excellent average of 76, Beth Mooney is currently leading the runs charts of the WBBL 2019. The left-handed opener has cracked six half-centuries this season, the most recent of which came in Sunday's clash against Perth Scorchers. She even scored 44 not-out in the reverse fixture against the Hurricanes.
Jess Jonassen: She is the tournament's best bowler at the moment having picked 17 wickets at a very healthy economy of 5.85. The left-arm spinner has bagged four-wicket hauls on three occasions and one of those was taken against Hobart Hurricanes. Jonassen also has plenty of potential with the bat which she showcased last time out against Melbourne Renegades in her knock of 63 not-out off just 29 balls.
Sammy-Jo Johnson: She has taken 15 wickets at an economy of 6.12 and is the joint second-leading wicket-taker of the tournament with Hobart's Belinda Vakarewa. The seam bowler has picked a couple of wickets in each of his last two matches.
BRHW Recent Form
Brisbane Heat are having an excellent tournament and are currently topping the points table after winning eight matches from the eleven they have played thus far. They did not start off too well, suffering three defeats in their first five matches but now six wins on the bounce have turned their fortunes around dramatically. Brisbane Heat's most recent encounter came on Wednesday against Melbourne Renegades at the Junction Oval in Melbourne where they registered a six-run victory.

🏆 Hobart Hurricanes Women vs Brisbane Heat Women Prediction
There will be enormous pressure on Hobart Hurricanes as a loss at this stage will surely put them out of contention for the semi-finals. Though they will be playing at their home ground but having lost seven of their last eight matches here is only going to make their opponents more optimistic. Brisbane Heat have plenty of momentum on their side with wins in their last six matches and are looking unstoppable at the moment. The Hurricanes do have a potent bowling attack but their batting has relied heavily on the likes of Heather Knight and Nicola Carey. They got pipped in the reverse encounter last month and could feel the heat again when they face Brisbane on Friday.
