Brisbane Heat Women have hit their stride at the perfect time. After a sluggish start with just two wins in their first five games, they bounced back impressively with five consecutive victories.

Grace Harris has been the standout batter for BH-W and will aim to provide a solid start alongside Georgia Redmayne. The middle order, featuring Jemimah Rodrigues, Charli Knott, and Jess Jonassen, forms a formidable unit that will need to build crucial partnerships. With Laura Harris and Lauren Winfield-Hill adding depth, the batting lineup appears well-rounded.

Sydney Thunder Women

Sydney Thunder Women delivered an impressive performance in the Eliminator, defeating Hobart Hurricanes Women by six wickets. Despite concerns about their form before the match, they dominated from the outset. However, facing Brisbane Heat Women will be a tougher challenge, and the Thunder skipper will count on a strong all-around effort from her team.

Chamari Athapaththu and Georgia Voll have yet to find their best form, and ST-W will hope for a big contribution from them in this game.

With Georgia Adams, Sammy-Jo Johnson, and Hannah Darlington adding firepower, the batting lineup looks solid.

The bowlers impressed in the previous match, and the team will look to Shabnim Ismail and Samantha Bates to strike early against Brisbane Heat’s in-form batting unit. Chamari Athapaththu will aim to maintain her good bowling form with tight spells in the middle overs, supported by Hannah Darlington. Georgia Adams and Taneale Peschel round out a strong bowling attack.
