The seventh Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL) of the 2024 season will be played between Sydney Thunder women and Hobart Hurricanes women. This will be the second game between the two sides. Hurricanes won the first match by 31 runs. This match will be played at the North Sydney Oval on 31st October at 1:45 PM IST.
Sydney Thunder lost their first game by 31 runs against the Hurricanes. Consistency with the bat is a big concern for them. Heather Knight’s inclusion in this game will be a big boost for them. Phoebe Litchfield was brilliant in the first game. Sam Bates and Chamari Athapaththu did well with the ball. They’ll look to settle the score in this game.
On the other hand, Hurricanes women will look to a double on Thunder in this match. Nicola Carey’s form with bat and ball was a big positive for them. The bowlers did a great job in the first game and will look to replicate that in this match.
The pitch at the North Sydney Oval is an excellent one for batting. The ball will come· onto the bat nicely and the batters will enjoy their time· on the crease. The ground dimensions are on the smaller side as well. The Pacers will get good assistance with the new ball, especially under lights. Expect a high-scoring encounter. Scores in the range of 160 – 180 are expected. Teams will prefer chasing.
It will be cloudy, but rain is not predicted. The temperature will hover around 18-19 degrees Celsius, and humidity will be around 60 % during the game.
