TEAMS PREVIEW
Australian Capital Territory Preview
Australian Capital Territory Women have started their campaign with a confident 13-run win over Sydney Sixers Women. Batting first, they posted 172-6 on the board with contributions from almost everyone in the batting order. The top-scorer was Annie Wikman (37 off 26 balls).
Australian Capital Territory Women seem to have gathered a solid batting unit. The likes of Alisha Bates, Paris Bowdler, Grace Lyons, and Carly Leeson provide stability at the top. Then they have Annie Wikman to push for some quick runs in the death overs.
The bowling unit will depend on Angelina Genford and Grace Dignam, who were among the wickets in the previous game. Holly Ferling is relatively new to the scene, but she is in good wicket-taking form this season, having taken 8 wickets in her last 4 games before coming into this tournament.
Australian Capital Territory Predicted Playing XI:
Paris Bowdler (wk), Alisha Bates, Grace Lyons, Carly Leeson (c), Annie Wikman, Grace Dignam, Shivani Mehta, Zoe Cooke, Angelina Genford, Holly Ferling, Chelsea Moscript.

Melbourne Stars Preview
Melbourne Stars Women have named a squad of 13 players for the T20 Spring Challenge. There are plenty of new faces in the squad, such as Indigo Noble, Mia Perrin, Zoe Samuel, and Holly Spencer.
However, their main player to watch out for is Meg Lanning. The veteran Australian batter has retired from international cricket but has a wealth of experience, with close to 3500 runs in T20I at a strike rate of 116. Lanning will be the cornerstone of the Stars’ batting unit.
Wicket-keeper batter Sophie Reid has been in form this season and made some good scores in the Women's National Cricket League. We are backing her to carry over that form to this tournament.
All-rounders Sophie Day and Tess Flintoff are important cogs in this team, and their performances will determine whether Melbourne Stars Women will dominate this match.
Melbourne Stars Predicted Playing XI:
Sophie Day, Tess Flintoff, Hasrat Gill, Liv Henry, Meg Lanning, Rhys McKenna, Sasha Moloney, Sophie Reid (wk), Indigo Noble, Mia Perrin, Zoe Samuel
Melbourne Stars Actual Playing XI:
Holly Spencer, Meg Lanning, Olivia Henry, Sophie Reid, Mia Perrin, Rhys McKenna, Tess Flintoff, Zoe Samuel, Sasha Moloney, Sophie Day, Maisy Gibson

Winning Prediction
Australian Capital Territory Women have started their season with a confident win and will be looking to build on their momentum. Melbourne Stars Women have a new-look squad, and it remains to be seen how they gel as a unit. If Meg Lanning can hold one end together, then the Stars will certainly put up a strong fight. However, ACT Women appear to have a much more balanced side given the way they performed in their first game, and we are hence backing them to dominate this contest.
