Women's Big Bash League 2022, Match 26, Melbourne Stars Women vs Adelaide Strikers Women: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast and Live Streaming Details

The 26th match of the Women’s Big Bash League’s eighth edition (WBBL 2022) is all set to be played between Melbourne Stars and Adelaide Strikers on Wednesday (November 2) at the North Sydney Oval.

With four back-to-back victories, the Adelaide Strikers have gotten the attention of everyone. In their latest encounter against Perth Scorchers, Tahlia McGrath and her team shone in a low-scoring thriller.

Whilst looking to chase 111 after their bowlers, Darcie Brown 2/18, and Amanda Jade 2/13 did splendidly, the batters Deandra Dottin and Katie Mack put up a solid start with 18 and 47 runs, respectively. While Katie remained not out, she built a partnership with Madeline Penna to finish things off with a cherry on top.

In contrast, the only time Melbourne Stars were victorious was in their game against Melbourne Renegades. The side lost the rest of their games while one contest ended with a no-result.

During the Renegades vs Stars clash, Annabell Sutherland’s heroics saw her adjudged the Player of the Match/ The all-rounder was equally explosive with bat and ball, amassing 48-ball 42 and returning with a three-wicket haul for 17 runs.

Another Stars’ bowler Sophie Day also impressed on the day with a four-wicket haul while giving away 19 runs.
