PSW Team News
With qualification already secured, there will be a temptation in the Perth Scorchers’ camp to give some players a well deserved rest. However, with the team’s form so strong, we expect them to retain the side and target a fourth straight victory. There are no injury worries in the squad.

- Beth Mooney - The highest run scorer in the tournament comes into this game with 218 runs to her name from her last three innings.
- Sophie Devine - The captain has hit 384 runs in this year’s WBBL 2021 whilst chipping in with 8 wickets at the same time. She took 2-30 and made 61 in her last game.

Melbourne Stars Women Team News & Playing 11
MSW Team News
Meg Lanning’s side have been let down by their batting in recent games but do not have a great deal of depth on the bench to call upon. Instead, they will be looking for Lanning to find some form after she has contributed only 1 half-century. The Stars have a fully fit squad to select from.
MSW Key Players
- Elyse Villani - The opener has blown hot and cold this tournament and her recent dip in form has coincided with two defeats. She has hit 2 half-centuries in the competition.
- Annabel Sutherland - The all-rounder has struggled with the bat this year but has impressed with the ball. She has picked up 10 wickets so far.
- Kim Garth - The Irish all-rounder has been Melbourne Stars’ most consistent player in this year’s WBBL with 13 wickets and a batting average of 32.20.
MSW Team Form
Melbourne Stars had got themselves into a good position for having a tilt at the top four but two successive defeats has left them on the brink of elimination.
