After losing their opening two games of the competition, Melbourne Stars were very impressive in the win over Sydney Sixers. They should have an increase in self-belief after getting their first victory of the season.
Brisbane Heat produced a very strong all-round performance to defeat Perth Scorchers by 59 runs in their last match. They come into this game with both the batting and bowling departments in good shape.

MLSW Team News
After registering their first victory of the season, and reporting no injuries in the process, it would be a big surprise if Melbourne Stars made any changes to their side. In their last game, none of their bowlers’ economy rates exceeded 6 runs per over and all of their five batters used posted scores into double figures.
MLSW Key Players
- Annabel Sutherland - The all-rounder got her first score with the bat in the last game but already has 4 wickets in this year’s WBBL 2021.
- Maia Bouchier - The young English batter hit a 25-ball unbeaten 32 against Sydney Sixers, an innings which included 4 fours.
- Kim Garth - The Irish all-rounder is already having a big impact on Melbourne Stars this season. She hit 24 not-out from 21 balls and has 4 wickets in the tournament so far.
Melbourne Stars Women have now ended their three-game losing streak and are well placed to put together another strong campaign.

BRHW Team News
From nowhere, Brisbane Heat Women produced an all-round performance to thrash last year’s runners-up Melbourne Stars Women on Tuesday. As a result, we expect to see the management keep faith with the same XI selected for this game.
BRHW Key Players
- Georgia Redmayne - The keeper-batter had a game to remember against Perth Scorchers. Redmayne hit an unbeaten 59 before taking 4 catches and a stumping with the gloves.
- Poonam Yadav - The India leg-spinner has found her groove in the WBBL immediately. She has taken 2 wickets in both of the opening games.
- Jess Jonassen - The captain and slow left-arm bowler has bowled brilliantly in the opening two games of the competition. Her figures have been 3-16 and 1-14.
The first win of the season is always important but the manner of the victory over Perth Scorchers sent a message that Brisbane Heat are to be taken seriously again this season.
