After winning their season opener, Sydney Sixers Women have suffered two back-to-back defeats – by 11 runs against Adelaide Strikers Women and by 32 runs against Melbourne Stars Women.
The batting hasn’t delivered except Ellyse Perry (166 runs in 3 innings at 182.41) and Sarah Bryce (102 runs in 3 innings at 138).
The Sixers will be expecting some solid contributions from Alyssa Healy, Ashleigh Gardner, and Hollie Armitage in this game.
Perry also tops the team’s bowling charts with 5 wickets at an economy of 8. Gardner too has 5 wickets, while Courtney Sippel and Sophie Ecclestone have 3 each.
This is a strong, well-balanced squad. They just need their batting unit to deliver.
Key Players: Ellyse Perry, Ashleigh Gardner, Alyssa Healy
Ellyse Perry has been in fine form this season smashing 27 fours in the three matches she has played, averaging 9 fours per game. Given her boundary hitting form, we back Perry to hit over 3.5 fours against the Hurricanes.

The pitch at the Bellerive Oval is a really early movement for bowlers. Seamers will get a good bounce and seam movement off the surface with the new ball. However, it does tend to get better for batting as the new ball loses its shine. The afternoon sea breeze from the Derwent River will also help the seamers get some extra movement.
The weather in Hobart will be pleasant and partly cloudy. The forecast says that there is very little chance of rain, so we should get a full match.
The average first innings score at the Bellerive Oval is 138. The highest total posted here is Hobart Hurricanes Women’s 212-3 versus Melbourne Renegades Women. The Hurricanes won that game by 93 runs. In this season’s first game played here, Hobart Hurricanes scored 141-7 after batting first against Sydney Thunder and won by 31 runs.
The pitch at Blundstone arena favours the batters and In three of the last five matches played at this venue have seen in scores of over 290 runs. We predict it to be a high scoring game with the total match score over 285.5 runs.
The first game of WBBL 10 played at the Bellerive Oval was won comfortably by the team batting first. This might influence both captains, who are likely to bat first in this game.
Sydney Sixers Women have won each of their last five encounters against Hobart Hurricanes Women. They have suffered two consecutive losses, but they have a pretty solid squad that can defeat any team on their day. The Sixers’ batting unit, particularly, needs to stand up. The Hurricanes too, will be confident on their home ground. However, looking at the strengths and weaknesses of both teams, we reckon Sydney Sixers will prevail in this contest.
We are backing Sydney Sixers Women as the winners of this match.
