Brisbane Heat Women vs Sydney Sixers Women, WOMENS BIG BASH LEAGUE 2020, Today Match Prediction 04 Nov 2020

bhw vs sysw Match Prediction & Analysis

Defending champions Brisbane Heat Women have started the new season on a topsy-turvy note. After 4 matches, they have one loss and one win to their name and are at the 4th position at the points table. One would have expected the two-time champions to fare a little better than this and Brisbane would be hoping to more commanding when they take on Sydney Sixers Women who have looked like the side to beat this year. Sydney Sixers is yet to lose a game in this season and appears to be a settled and well-rounded team.

Brisbane Heat has had a great record against Sydney Sixers in recent times and this game could be their perfect chance to get back to winning ways.

TEAMS PREVIEW

Brisbane Heat Women Preview

Brisbane Heat Women started the season with a bang, beating Perth Scorchers Women by 7 wickets. However, after two back-to-back abandoned games, they were thwarted by Sydney Thunder Women by 14 runs. They have a chance for revival when they take on Sydney Sixers in their upcoming game. 

In their last game against Sydney Thunder, Brisbane completely collapsed while chasing a target of 45 in just 5 overs and were restricted to 30-7. It was a poor show from a batting lineup that is pretty strong. With the likes of Grace Harris, skipper Jess Jonassen, Laura Harris, Maddy Green, and Amelia Kerr, they have enough firepower to take down any opposition. Brisbane would hence hope that the last game was an aberration and would like to start afresh. All-rounder Grace Harris could be the player to watch out for as she has looked great with the ball and the bat.

Brisbane’s bowling department is well-settled too with Nicola Hancock looking in a great rhythm, along with Nadine de Klerk, Delissa Kimmince, and captain Jonassen herself. It will be a challenge to restrict the strong Sydney Sixers batting unit but that could be their best chance.

Brisbane Heat Women Predicted Playing XI:

Maddy Green, Georgia Redmayne (wk), Jess Jonassen (c), Grace Harris, Laura Harris, Amelia Kerr, Mikayla Hinkley, Delissa Kimmince, Georgia Prestwidge, Nadine de Klerk, Nicola Hancock

Sydney Sixers Women Preview

Sydney Sixers Women look like a determined outfit this year. After finishing 5th last season, they have begun this season on a much better note and are firmly placed at the 2nd place in the points table with 2 wins and no losses. They have taken down Adelaide Strikers Women and Melbourne Renegades Women comfortably so far and it would be interesting to see if they can continue that form. 

The presence of Alyssa Healy and captain Ellyse Perry at the top gives them a huge boost. In the last game too, while chasing a target of 120 against the Renegades, the due put on a solid partnership of 72 runs. Expect them to deliver more such performances in the coming games. Ashleigh Gardner, Erin Burns, Marizanne Kapp, and Dane van Niekerk only provide stability to this strong batting unit.

The Sixers are filled with genuine all-rounders and Kapp, along with Perry and Gardner will be bowling some crucial overs throughout. Stella Campbell has been in good form and picked up 3 wickets for 32 runs in the last match. With such great variety, getting past this Sixers bowling unit won’t be easy.

Sydney Sixers Women Predicted Playing XI:

Alyssa Healy (wk), Ellyse Perry (c), Ashleigh Gardner, Erin Burns, Marizanne Kapp, Dane van Niekerk, Angela Reakes, Lisa Griffith, Hayley Silver-holmes, Jodie Hicks, Stella Campbell

Sydney Sixers Women Actual Playing XI:

Angela Reakes, Ashleigh Gardner, Stella Campbell, Lisa Griffith, Jodie Hicks, Ellyse Perry, Hayley Silver-Holmes, Erin Burns, Marizanne Kapp, Alyssa Healy, Dane van Niekerk

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

The pitch at the Blacktown International Sportspark is expected to be a slow but good one. Batters are likely to flourish initially but things will get difficult as the game progresses. The seam bowlers should enjoy the bounce and seam movement that the surface should likely offer and if there are overhead clouds around, then it will only make things better for them.

Thankfully, the weather forecast for Sydney has improved this week and we are likely to have clear weather for this game. No showers are expected and we can hope for a full game.

Venue Details

The Blacktown International Sportspark is known to be a low-scoring venue as there haven’t been too many tall totals seen here. While we are yet to see a game yet here this season, don’t expect a high-scoring match. A total of around 130-140 by the side batting first could well be a match-winning one.

Toss: To Bowl

The team winning the toss would look to bowl first as chasing has been fruitful this season given the unpredictable weather.

BHW vs SYSW
Winning Prediction

In the last 5 matches between Brisbane Heat Women and Sydney Sixers Women, Brisbane has maintained a great record and won 4 matches while losing just one. In fact, they have now won four games in a row against Sydney Sixers and should ideally begin as favorites for this clash. However, things look different for Sydney Sixers this time round and it won’t be easy to get past them. The duo of Alyssa Healy and Ellyse Perry presents a great threat to Brisbane and they could be detrimental in the match’s outcome. 

There are no outright favorites for this clash, but defending champs Sydney Sixers are likely to continue their winning momentum.

We are backing the Sydney Sixers as the winners of this clash.
