Although Melbourne Renegades Women and Adelaide Strikers Women are only separated by Sydney Sixers Women in seventh place in the table, there is still plenty of road to go in this year's Women's Big Bash League and both sides are only two points off the top!
Any disappointment from the Australia Women players and their showing at the 2024 Women's T20 World Cup have been long forgotten and we expect both teams to come into this game with an attacking mindset.
Melbourne Renegades Women have the advantage of having played at this venue on Saturday and picking up their first victory of the season! They will be looking to carry that momentum into this clash.

Needing 141 to their first win of this year's tournament, Melbourne Renegades Women had their opening pair of Hayley Matthews and Courtney Webb to thank against Perth Scorchers Women as they put on 102 inside 11 overs!
That allowed their middle order players to come in and play with freedom to get the job completed swiftly so there will be plenty of confident batters in the side ahead of this match. Alice Capsey at three is an excellent batter who likes to clear the ropes and Deandra Dottin can always be relied upon for lower order runs.
Four of Melbourne Renegades Women's bowlers took two or more wickets in their last game so it won't just be the batters with a spring in their step ahead of this match! Sophie Molineux in particular will be keen to get underway once again after returning figures of 2/35 and 4/17 from her last two matches.

Although Adelaide Strikers Women do not have the strongest batting squad on paper in the tournament, their top two of Katie Mack and South Africa skipper Laura Wolvaardt is one of the best in this WBBL.
Mack was again in form in the last game, hitting 51 runs from 42 balls, including five fours and one six, but she will need more from her team-mates in this match. In that last fixture against Sydney Thunder Women, only Madeline Penna and Jemma Barsby made it into the twenties, so the likes of Wolvaardt and skipper Tahlia McGrath will be desperate to contribute with the bat in this game.
With the ball, Adelaide Strikers Women have real variety as well as experience. Expect Megan Schutt, Darcie Brown, Orla Prendergast and Amanda-Jade Wellington to lead the attack.

According to the forecast it will be a pleasant afternoon in this part of Melbourne on Sunday. In a city which is famed for experiencing 'four seasons in one day' it looks like being very calm with no chance of rain and a top temperature of 21 degrees.
The Junction Oval continues to deliver an excellent battle between bat and ball, particularly in T20 cricket. Batters had the better of the conditions here in Match 10 but then it was the bowlers who responded well in Match 11! Any score over 165 will be hard to chase down on a pitch which is likely to get slower as the game progresses.
Both games in this year's WBBL at the Junction Oval have been won by the team fielding first and we expect that to be in the minds of both captains when the toss takes place. Therefore, we predict that both teams will want to chase in this match.
After their success in their last game, we fancy Melbourne Renegades Women to continue their upturn in form. Our prediction is for a close contest but for Melbourne Renegades Women to get the better of Adelaide Strikers Women.
We are backing Melbourne Renegades Women to win!
