The Eliminator of WBBL 2023 is set to take place on Tuesday, November 28, between the Brisbane Heat Women and the Sydney Thunder Women in Perth.

The Brisbane Heat secured the third position in the points table with eight wins and six losses, a record similar to the Perth Scorchers. However, due to a lower net run rate (NRR), they fell short of claiming the second spot. The Heat ended the group stage on a high note by defeating the Sydney Thunder in their last game.

On the other hand, Sydney Thunder finished in the fourth position with seven victories and six losses. Their recent form has been challenging, losing three games on the trot.

Among the notable players, Thunder's opener Chamari Athapaththu stands as the second-highest run-scorer in WBBL 2023. Jess Jonassen and Hannah Darlington lead as the top wicket-takers for their respective teams.
