BH vs AS Match Preview

We had some good games in the first week of the Big Bash League 2024-25. The Brisbane Heat will begin the second week with a home opener against the Adelaide Strikers in the ninth match. Both squads will be confident after winning their previous games. The Brisbane Heat annihilated the Melbourne Stars, while the Adelaide Strikers won the same match. The Brisbane Heat have dominated the Adelaide Strikers in recent seasons, winning three straight against them. The team plays that home and the fans will root for them. The Adelaide Strikers have not looked persuasive in either game.

Last season, the Sydney Thunder struggled to get started, winning only one game and completing eighth on the table. They encountered the Adelaide Strikers multiple times and were outplayed both times, with Adelaide completing the double over them. In fact, the Thunder have not defeated the Strikers over their last five meetings. In contrast, the Adelaide Strikers enjoyed a slow start this year but eventually found their groove, winning four straight games to secure a playoff spot.

This is likely to be a close contest, but we believe the Perth Scorchers have a better chance of winning. Considering the team combination, Perth Scorchers-W is expected to win this match.

The Brisbane Heat will face the Adelaide Strikers in the Women's Big Bash League at the Gabba. Heat, after losing three games in a row, will be eager to face Strikers, a team against which they've had a lot of achievements in the last month or so. Within the last 25 days, the Brisbane girls have defeated their Adelaide counterparts twice at the T20 Spring Challenge as well as in the WBBL.

AS-W vs BH-W Probable Winners:

Brisbane Heat women recently played Adelaide Strikers, winning three games comfortably last month. Their form has dipped slightly, but they will fancy their chances against a struggling Strikers side. Considering the team combination, Adelaide Strikers-W is expected to win this match.

India Women’s all-format vice-captain Smriti Mandhana is set to begin her new journey in the Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL). 

Smriti Mandhana has been included in the 13-member Adelaide Strikers’ squad for the upcoming WBBL 2024/25 match against the hosts Brisbane Heat. Gabba will host this match on Saturday (November 9).

Mandhana wasn’t available for the early period of the new WBBL season due to national team commitment, as they hosted New Zealand Women in the three-match WODI series. While India Women won the series by 2-1, Smriti Mandhana scored a match-winning century (100) in the series finale. 

Smriti Mandhana has great WBBL records

It will be Mandhana’s fourth season at the WBBL. The left-handed opening batter has scored 784 runs in 38 WBBL matches with an average of 24.50 and a strike rate of 130.01. She has also taken three wickets. 

Mandhana scored 89 runs in 12 matches for Brisbane Heat Women during her first WBBL season (2016/17).    

Mandhana’s next WBBL experience was in the 2018/19 season, where the Hobart Hurricanes Women’s batter scored 318 runs in 13 matches with an average of 24.46 and a strike rate of 144.54, including two half-centuries. She was the second-most run-scorer for her team in that season.  

Mandhana’s last WBBL season was the 2021/22 season, where the Sydney Thunders Women’s batter scored 377 runs in 13 games with an average of 34.27 and a strike rate of 130.44, including one century and two half-centuries. The left-handed batter was the leading run-scorer for her team in that season. 

Against Melbourne Renegades Women, Mandhana scored 114 not out in the 2021/22 season, which is the second-highest score in the WBBL history. While it was the highest individual score at that time, Brisbane Heat Women’s Grace Harris broke the record with her 136 not out against Perth Scorchers Women in October 2023. 

Mandhana is going to be a key name for Adelaide Strikers Women

Now, Mandhana is set to make her debut for Adelaide Strikers Women. Strikers are in the last place in the WBBL 2024/25 points table with only two points. In their first four games of the season, Strikers Women won once and lost three other matches.

We’re thrilled to have Smriti Mandhana joining the squad and to see Bridget Patterson back in action as we face the Heat tomorrow night at the Gabba! 🔥 pic.twitter.com/gADJG5vrSD
