ASW vs PSW Match Analysis

The 4th match of the T20 Spring Challenge 2024 will take place October 11, 2024, at 10:00 AM in the Karen Rolton Oval, Adelaide, South Australia where Adelaide Strikers Women vs Perth Scorchers Women will face each other. Tahlia McGrath and Sophie Devine were initially selected as Adelaide’s and Perth’s captains, respectively. In the first-ever T20 Spring Challenge 2024, several fresh faces will take the lead as the two are serving their country.

Adelaide Strikers will kick off their T20 Spring Challenge campaign at home against Perth Scorchers. The Strikers claimed the WBBL 2023 title, led by Tahlia McGrath, whose impressive all-round performance in the Final played a key role in defending a total of 125 runs.

Perth Scorchers were eliminated in the WBBL 2023 Eliminator, but they will be keen to begin this tournament with a victory after their strong performance in the previous Big Bash season.

ASW vs PSW Team Preview & Squads

Adelaide Strikers Women

In Adelaide Strikers Women, with a match total of 3 for 16, Amanda Jade-Wellington took the most wickets and will be available for the T20 Spring Challenge’s debut season. The ADW will look to Jemma Barsby and Anesu Mushangwe with the ball in place of Megan Schutt and Darcie Brown.

In this tournament, Kaite Mack will require a new opening partner. One player that might be included in the starting lineup is Courtney Neale. Bridget Patterson, a batter who keeps wickets, is a player to keep an eye on in the middle order. Another batter who batted in the lower middle order the previous season but was unable to have a significant effect is Maddie Penna.

The Strikers should benefit from the squad’s overwhelming reliance on spinners on this particular pitch. Ellie Johnston, Paris Hall, and Maggie Clark are a few of the new players leading the ADS Women’s batting attack.

Georgia Adams, Katie Mack, Annie O’Neil, Bridget Patterson, Laura Wolvaardt, Tahlia McGrath, Jemma Barsby, Danielle Gibson, Ella Wilson, Darcie Brown, Anesu Mushangwe, Courtney Neale, Madeline Penna, Megan Schutt, Amanda-Jade Wellington. 

Perth Scorchers Women

The Scorchers will be without several key players who were included in the original squad for the T20 Spring Challenge. 

The team also included Marizanne Kapp, Alana King, and Sophie Devine. This lineup would have been much stronger with these all-rounders. But without them, the team’s only available all-rounders are Taneale Peschel and Charis Bekker. Other lesser-known batters who will play significant roles for PSW in this event are Maddy Drake and Mathilda Carmichael. 

Chloe Piparo, who batted at number three in the WBBL last season, will need to step up and take the batting lead for the Scorchers Women. 

Out of that squad, just nine players are available, so we’ll have to wait for more announcements to find out the whole story. We are currently limited to speculating on the likely lineups based solely on the squads that were previously released.
