Sydney Thunder Women vs Sydney Sixers Match Prediction & Betting Tips, WBBL 2021
We have our first Sydney derby of the season as Match 12 of the WBBL delivers Sydney Thunder Women against Sydney Sixers Women on Saturday afternoon. Sydney Thunder have lost their only game of the tournament so far, whereas Sydney Sixers have won two and lost one. The game will be played at the University of Tasmania Stadium, Launceston, and begins at 15:40 local time.
Sydney Thunder have been putting their feet up whilst the rest of the competitors have been playing games in the WBBL. They should be fresh and raring to go in this fixture.
Sydney Sixers got off to a great start in the competition with successive wins but have been checked back after the defeat to Melbourne Stars. However, Ellyse Perry’s runs will give her side plenty of confidence ahead of this derby.

Sydney Thunder Women Team News & Playing 11
SYTW Team News
It will have been almost a week since Sydney Thunder last played in the WBBL by the time this game begins. There were no injury worries at the end of their defeat to Adelaide Strikers and nothing has been reported since. We expect to see the same XI from Sydney Thunder in this match.
SYTW Key Players
- Smriti Mandhana - The India opener enjoyed the international multi-format series against Australia and will be raring to go again in the WBBL 2021 in this match.
- Sammy-Jo Johnson - The Australia all-rounder is a reliable presence at the top of the batting order and a constant threat with the ball in hand.
- Issy Wong - The England teenager is yet to get a full international cap but will cause plenty of batters problems on these slow pitches in Tasmania.
After ending last season with the title and in unstoppable form, Sydney Thunder need to get some momentum and games under their belt.

Sydney Sixers Women Team News & Playing 11
SYSW Team News
After beginning this season with straight victories, Sydney Sixers need to re-find the winning formula which escaped them against Melbourne Stars. With a fully fit side, we do not expect to see wholesale challenges in the Sixers’ side as they had looked very strong in the opening two games.
SYSW Key Players
- Alyssa Healy - The keeper-batter began this year’s WBBL with a half-century against Melbourne Stars. She is due another big score after two low innings.
- Ellyse Perry - One of the most dominant players in Australian cricket over the past 13 years, she looks like she is coming back into her top form.
- Shafali Verma - at only 17 years of age, there is always a worry that too much is being expected of Verma too soon. However, she hit a half-century one game ago and continues to impress.
One defeat does not ruin a season and Sydney Sixers will be hoping that it does not affect their form which had been strong until their last game.
