TEAMS PREVIEW

Hobart Hurricanes Women Preview

From being at the pole position last season to biting the dust this year, the Hurricanes Women haven't got their campaign going. Heather Graham, who led the team in the absence of Nicola Carey, couldn't turn the team's fortunes around as they went down by 4 wickets against Brisbane Heat Women. After four consecutive losses, Graham expects a big win from her players to keep hopes alive for the next round. 

The batting lineup has struggled. Lizelle Lee's poor form has hurt the team, and she must deliver a strong start with Kate Pelle. Chamari Athapaththu must anchor the innings in the middle order and add runs with Rachel Trenaman and Heather Graham. Maddy Green is the team's top scorer with 88 runs and must do well in the lower middle order with Chinelle Henry. 

The bowling attack hasn't troubled the opponents this season. Chinelle Henry and Molly Strano must deliver early breakthroughs to put the team in a strong position. Heather Graham has picked up 8 wickets in the tournament and must bowl tight spells in the middle overs with Isabella Malgioglio. The team expects a strong supporting show from Hayley Silver-Holmes and Linsey Smith. 

Interesting Stats

1. Maddy Green has scored 88 runs in four games at a strike rate of 114.28
2. Heather Graham has picked up 8 wickets in four games at an average of 14.87

Adelaide Strikers Women Preview

They are seventh on the pointys table and must win this game to keep their hopes alive. Their opponents are in poor form, and McGrath wants to exploit it to win.  

Emma de Broughe and Maia Bouchier set up a 67-run stand in the last game, and the team expects a similar start from the pair. Laura Wolvaardt has made 147 runs this season and must build partnerships with Tahlia McGrath and Madeline Penna in the middle order. The team expects quick runs from Bridget Patterson and Amanda-Jade Wellington in the lower middle order.

The bowlers have struggled in the last two games. Megan Schutt must use her experience and deliver early breakthroughs with Anesu Mushangwe.

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

Skies will be overcast over Hobart, and there may be rain during the game. The temperature will be around 16°C at the start of the game. The humidity will be around 65%, and batting conditions will be good. Bowlers will have a tough time on this surface.

HHW vs ADSW Pitch Report

Bellerive Oval in Hobart is a small venue. The short square boundaries allow batters to score easily. The wicket offers early assistance to the fast bowlers with the new ball. There is little on this surface for the spinners, who struggle to contain the bowlers. The average first innings score last season was 156, and the team batting first must put up 180 on the board to feel confident.

Toss: To Bowl

The team chasing the score has won five out of the last seven games. The track is fast-paced at the start but tends to flatten out in the second half, making run chases easy. Both sides will look to make early use of the conditions by bowling first.
