In the 28th match of the Women’s Big Bash League 2021, Perth Scorchers Women will lock horns against Sydney Sixers Women at the Lilac Hill Park in Perth on Sunday.
Perth Scorchers are third in the points table, winning three of their five games thus far. They beat the Adelaide Strikers in a thriller the other day. The game went to a super over before the Scorchers held their nerve to get over the Strikers.
The Scorchers were restricted to 121 in their allotted twenty overs, and the bowlers then did a fabulous job of restricting the Strikers to the same score. The game went into a super over, where Sophie Devine hit two scintillating sixes to seal the game for the Scorchers. They will now look to carry forward their winning momentum in the rest of the tournament.
Meanwhile, Sydney Sixers are seventh in the points table ,and are struggling in the competition. After winning their first two games, they have failed to win a single game, and need something dramatic to turn the tables around. They suffered a loss against the Renegades in their last match.
The Melbourne Renegades posted 142 on the board, losing seven wickets. The Sixers kept losing wickets at regular intervals as they failed to chase down the total. They eventually fell short by 12 runs. They need to be at their absolute best against the Scorchers on Sunday.
