Who will win Sydney Sixers vs Adelaide Strikers, WBBL 2019?
Adelaide Strikers could move top of the Women’s Big Bash League table if they can end a nine-game losing streak against Sydney Sixers. The Strikers have never beaten the Sixers in this competition, but will look to end that sequence at the Hurstville Oval on November 30. The live action starts at 14:00 local time.
The Strikers, with Sophie Devine in stunning all-round form, have won their last five matches in a row to book their place in the semi-finals and they can no go top with one game remaining with a win in this fixture.
Sydney Sixers, meanwhile, sit fourth but they have lost their last four matches in a row and have Ellyse Perry sidelined through injury. As a result, they are in big danger of dropping out of the semi-final places. While they have never lost to the Strikers, they had also never lost to Hobart Hurricanes until they suffered defeat in the second game of this current losing streak.

Sydney Sixers Women Team News & Playing 11
SYSW Team News
English 22-year-old Hollie Armitage is Ellyse Perry’s replacement in this squad and batted at five last time out, with Erin Burns opening and Marizanne Kapp at number four. The only other change was Jodie Hicks returning in place of Maddy Darke – though she did not bat or bowl.
SYSW Key Players
Alyssa Healy: Scored an unbeaten century in this fixture last season and will be desperate to bounce back from a run of low scores. She has still scored 299 runs in this season’s tournament, including another unbeaten century.
Marizanne Kapp: Scored back-to-back half-centuries having been promoted up the batting order, while she has five wickets in her last three games too – taking her to 14 in 12 appearances.
Dane van Niekerk: Player of the match when these teams last met, the leg-spinner is back from injury and, though wicketless last time out, did bowl economically having already hit 21 with the bat.
SYSW Team Form
Sydney Sixers have lost their last four consecutive matches. Ellyse Perry was injured against Melbourne Renegades in the first of those and they have failed to win without their captain and star all-rounder. Most recently, Erin Burns (60*) top-scored in a total of 164/6 against Perth Scorchers but they failed to defend it. Ashleigh Gardner took both wickets to fall, but Perth won by eight wickets with four balls to spare.

Adelaide Strikers Women Team News & Playing 11
ADSW Team News
Stafanie Taylor’s injury on international duty means the West Indian will not be returning to replace Lauren Winfield, and the Strikers have instead been very consistent with their line-up. Another unchanged team last time out is likely to be retained this time too.
ADSW Key Players
Sophie Devine: The New Zealander is in stunning all-round form. She has 593 runs, including a phenomenal seven half-centuries – six of which have come in her last seven innings – and 15 wickets too.
Suzie Bates: While Devine has overshadowed Bates this season, the ‘other’ New Zealand Star in the Strikers’ line-up scored 64 in the recent win against Hobart Hurricanes and has 296 runs in total this season.
Amanda-Jade Wellington: Took 3-17 with the ball and then bowled a stunning super over in which she claimed 1-6 to earn victory last time out. She now has 16 wickets – one more than Devine – and is third on the WBBL|05 wicket-taking charts.
ADSW Team Form
Adelaide Strikers have now won their last five matches in a row, with Sophie Devine scoring half-centuries in four of them and 31 in the other. She also has seven wickets in that time. Most recently she was player-of-the-match against Sydney Thunder – though the Strikers did need a super over to keep their winning streak going. Devine hit 88 in a total of 161/6 but the Thunder matched it despite Amanda-Jade Wellington’s 3-17. Wellington’s brilliant super over – taking 1-6 – allowed Devine to then hit the winning runs with three balls to spare.
