MS-W vs MR-W Probable Winners:

The Melbourne Stars Women have previously dominated the Melbourne Renegades Women, defeating them twice in each of the past two seasons. But this time, the Renegades had previously flipped the tables, defeating the Stars in their previous meeting this season. The Stars' hitting has been underwhelming, whereas the Renegades are on fire. Given their current form, we believe the Renegades will come out ahead. Considering the team combination, Melbourne Renegades-W is expected to win this match.
