Bet NowWomen`s cricket is having a great success in the recent 2 years and the Hundred a new format of game recently launched brought in a huge number of viewers for women`s cricket. Women`s Big Bash has been a massive success and we expect it raise to a great levels in this season. Sydney Thunder won their second title in the last season and will look to defend it for the second time this season. Their opponents Adelaide Strikers are yet to win the title and their best result came in the 2019-20 season where they ended up as runners-up. Both teams will look to take up the first task of finding their best XI which gives the depth and balance.
Sydney thunder skipper Rachael Haynes is expected to miss some part of the tournament owing to maternity. They have retained the batters like Phoebe Litchifield, Tahila Paterson, and Conilla Hall for their victorious campaign. Indian duo of Smriti Mandana and Deepti Sharma is expected to fill the void left by the English players.
Sammy Jo Johnson and Hannah Darlington will be their first choice pace bowlers and they picked up almost 40+ wickets in the last season. Deepti Sharma, Lauren Smith, and Samantha Bates will form the spin bowling department of the team. Isabella Wong, Jessica Davidson, and Olivia Porter are in the standby list and will slot in if the team requires their services.
Top players to bet on:
Smriti Mandana – Mandana has been in brilliant form in the international circuit recently and even notched up a century in the pink ball test down under. We expect her to play a big role with the bat for the team in her first WBBL season.
Sammy Jo Johnson – Sammy is the highest wicket-taker last season with 22 scalps and she will need to lead the pace attack in the absence of Shabnam Ismail. She can be handy player with the bat too with crucial runs down the order.

Strikers have a strong batting unit with the likes of Laura Wolvaart, Katie Mack, Tegan McPharlin, and Bridget Patterson from the last season and Sarah Coyte and new comer Dane van Niekerk is expected to add more depth to their playing XI in batting and bowling departments.
They have a strong pace attack with the likes of Tahila McGrath, Darcie Brown, Megan Schutt, and Sarah Coyte in their playing XI. Amanda Wellington and Dane Van Niekerk will bowl in tandem in the middle overs taking care of the middle overs.
Top players to bet on:
Laura Wolvaart – Wolvaart is one of the quality players in international circuit and she can caress the ball over the in-field with ease in the power play overs. We expect her to make a big contribution to their batting department at the top.
Tahila McGrath – Tahila McGrath has been in red hot form in the international matches and she was the Women of the series in the recent series against India helping their team win matches with crucial performances.

Hobart is having a rainy climate and we expect weather to come into play in this match too. We might lose some overs and DLS equation will mark its appearance.
Hobart pitch excellent to bat on in the last match as teams scored almost 200+ runs in just 22 overs possible on the day. Bowlers need to execute their plans to perfection to stop the batters effectively. We expect scores to be around 160-180 runs in this match.
Chasing is the best option with rain threat looming and DLS equation defining the target for the second innings. We expect both captains to bowl first if they win the toss.
Both teams have good team with excellent balance in their batting and bowling departments. Adelaide Strikers have a strong pace attack with 4 pacers but lacks depth in spin department barring Niekerk and Wellington. Sydney thunder have a good mix of pace and spin bowlers in the team. Thunder too possess a strong batting depth with a number of all-rounder sin lower order. We expect Sydney thunder to win this match and build momentum in their title defense.
SYDNEY THUNDER WILL WIN THE MATCH
