The 53rd match of Women's Big Bash League 2023 is set to take place on Friday, November 24. Adelaide Strikers Women will take on Perth Scorchers Women at Adelaide Oval, Adelaide.

Adelaide Strikers claimed the top position in the Women's Big Bash League after a narrow three-run victory over Sydney Thunder in their last game. Laura Wolvaardt (71*), who won the Player of the Match, led the scoring in the first half, aided by Danielle Gibson (20) and Megan Schutt (16).

Defending a total of 121, all bowlers, except skipper Tahlia McGrath, contributed by taking at least one wicket. Anesu Mushangwe and Megan Schutt both stood out with two each.

On the other hand, Perth Scorchers faced a 33-run defeat against Melbourne Stars in their previous Women's Big Bash League match. Apart from Alana King, Piepa Cleary contributed with two wickets, while the remaining bowlers secured one wicket each to limit Stars to 157/6.

Despite a top-order collapse in the fifth over, Nat Sciver Brunt's 24 and Amy Jones' 42 stabilized the innings. However, their dismissals and the failure of subsequent batters led to Scorchers falling short of the target.
