Bet NowPerth Scorchers and Sydney thunder are currently at the last 2 places in the points table and will need to win matches to move up in the points table. Both teams failed to get a game time as their respective matches were cancelled even without the toss. Perth Scorchers won their opening match in an exciting super over contest and lost their second match by a big margin so far. Sydney Thunder lost their first match by 30 runs while their second match was washed away. Both teams will not want to lag behind in the points table and will be eager to win this match.
Perth Scorchers rely heavily on their star opening duo of Beth Mooney (46 runs) and Sophie Devine (37 runs) to post a good total on board. Chamari Athapathu (25 runs), Marizanne Kapp (15 runs), Heather Graham (23 runs), Chloe Piparo (30 runs) need to score important runs in the middle order batting line-up
Heather Graham, Lilly Mills, and Alana King have taken 3 wickets each in the 2 matches so far. Marizanne Kapp has been very economical with figures of 1/18 & 0/27 in the two matches. Taneale Peschel, Samantha Betts, and Sophie Devine need to maintain good line and lengths and create pressure in the middle overs.
Top players to bet on:
Heather Graham – Graham has bowling figures of 1/14 & 2/15 in the two matches at an economy rate of less than 5 RPO. She is yet to make a big score with the bat and we expect her to make a big contribution with bat and ball in this match.
Sophie Devine – Devine has won the Player of the tournament in last 2 season and we expect her to bring her A-game in this match after her average showing in first 2 matches. She can be a big player with bat and ball once she gets into rhythm.

Sydney thunder faced an early setback in a stiff chase of 141 runs losing 3 wickets inside the power play. Corinne Hall (38 runs) and Anika Leayord (23 runs) started off a brilliant fightback with 59-run partnership but after their wicket they succumbed from 93/3 to 110-all out in no time.
Their bowlers started off superbly with 4 wickets inside 7 overs but failed to take wicket in the crucial middle phase of 7-16 overs. Hannah Darlington, Samantha Jo-Johnson, and Samantha Bates bowled superbly taking 4 wickets between them and giving runs at just 6 RPO. Lauren Smith and Deepti Sharma took important wickets but need to control the run flow better in middle overs.
Top players to bet on:
Sammy Jo-Johnson – Johnson had bowling figures of 4-0-22-2 in the match but was dismissed for just 4 runs with the bat. We expect her to come to good form with the bat and ball in this match and lead her team to victory. .
Deepti Sharma – Deepti Sharma is one of the atr all-rounders in the international circuit who can perform with the bat and ball. She had bowling figures of 4-0-32-1 in the last game and we expect her to take vital wickets and score crucial runs in this match.

Launceston will have dark and cloudy weather with rain expected on the match day. We expect weather interruptions in the match.
Launceston pitch is expected to be skid on with a lot of moisture under it due to rain on the earlier days. The pitch might quicken out as the match progresses and aid the batters. We expect the teams to score in the range of 140-160 runs.
Both captains might opt to bowl first on this track owing to rain threat and DLS equation. Chasing will be safe option with a required target in hand.
Sydney thunder have a big batting line-up with 2-3 all-rounders in their starting XI while Perth Scorchers too have a long batting line-up but relies on their top-order to make big runs. Both team bowling units need to fix the issue of the fifth bowler and relies on all-rounders to do that role. Perth Scorchers have a slight upper hand in the team composition with the number of all-rounders how can effectively contribute with both bat and ball. We expect Perth Scorchers to win this match.
