AS-W vs MS-W Probable Winners:

It will be an argument of pride for both teams, as the outcome of this game will have no impact on their fortunes. The Melbourne Stars Women have had trouble with form and consistency, so the batting lineup must fire on all cylinders to win. The Adelaide Strikers Women are favorites because they have won two games in a row. Considering the team combination, Adelaide Strikers-W is expected to win this match.

Adelaide Strikers look like they are missing Rashid Khan this time. He has been a consistent contributor for them in the past and in his absence the bowling has looked concerning. Melbourne though has been coming back well in recent games with Glenn Maxwell providing some all-round magic in the previous game to get them back up.
