After an excellent first two-thirds of the competition, Sydney Thunder Women are currently experiencing their poorest run of form in this year’s WBBL. They are still in contention towards the top of the table but will need to win this match to get their campaign back on track.
The majority of Sydney Thunder Women’s success this season has been based upon their strong batting line up which includes Chamari Athapaththu, captain Heather Knight and Marizanne Kapp in the top five. Athapaththu hit seven fours in the last game, always scores her runs at a good rate, and will be key in this game.
Off-spinner Lauren Smith should get some turn from this pitch in Sydney and comes into this match in strong form after dismissing Katie Mack, Tahlia McGrath and Laura Wolvaardt in the last game. Athapaththu will also cause problems with her spin.
Sydney Thunder Women come into this clash looking to avoid their third successive defeat.

No team seems to give Perth Scorchers Women problems at the moment and they come into this game at the top of the table with eight wins from their 11 matches. Their last fixture saw them defeat Sydney Sixers Women by 61 runs on Thursday.
On this batter friendly surface, keeper-batter Beth Mooney will be looking to maintain her recent run of form which has seen her finish not-out in each of the last three innings and score a combined 239 runs! Skipper Sophie Devine and Nat Sciver-Brunt have both also been making significant contributions.
Although this pitch looks likely to be one which will be good for the batters, bowling all-rounder Chloe Ainsworth will be desperate to get the ball in her hand with figures of 2/8 and 2/12 from her last two games. We can also expect Alana King’s leg-breaks to be tough to face on this pitch.
Perth Scorchers Women are targeting their fifth successive victory in the competition.

Although both teams are in the top four places ahead of this game, the form could not be different. Sydney Thunder Women have been dropping down the table with Perth Scorchers Women opening up a gap at the top. Our prediction is for Perth Scorchers Women to win this match.
