The Melbourne Renegades and Brisbane Heat will lock horns in Match 54 of the Women’s Big Bash League on Saturday at Harrup Park in Mackay.

The Renegades, led by Sophie Molineux, are handsomely placed atop the points table with 18 points from 13 matches. However, they need to be careful about their net run rate, which is currently at -1.200. In their previous game, the Hobart Hurricanes defeated the Renegades by 52 runs.

After the Renegades opted to bowl first, Harmanpreet Kaur and Courtney Webb picked up two wickets apiece as the Hurricanes racked up 161 for five. In response, the Renegades were shot out for 109 in a mere 18 overs. They lost 10 wickets for 80 runs in a space of 14 overs.

The Heat, captained by Jess Jonassen, on the other hand, have a chance of moving to second spot in the points table. However, the team has entered a somewhat mini-slump after hefty losses at the hands of the Adelaide Strikers and Sydney Thunder.
