Women's Big Bash League 2021: Match 13, Perth Scorchers Women vs Melbourne Renegades Women - Probable 11s, Weather Forecast, Pitch Report, Match Prediction and Live Streaming Details
The Perth Scorchers and Melbourne Renegades will lock horns in the 13th match of the WBBL on Saturday at the Aurora Stadium in Launceston.
The Scorchers, led by Sophie Devine, have struggled to some extent in the ongoing WBBL.
In their first, it was the skipper who bailed them out of jail with back-to-back sixes off Jess Jonassen in the Super Over. But in their second game against the same opposition, they lost by 59 runs.
Their bowlers faltered as the Heat racked up 162 on the board on the back of an unbeaten 52-ball 59 from Georgia Redmayne. Thereafter, the Scorchers were shot out for 103 in 17.2 overs.
A number of their batters got into double digits, but no one could make their start count.
The Renegades, on the other hand, are hanging in the middle of the points table. They began with a resounding six-wicket win over the Hobart Hurricanes in their opening match.
But the Adelaide Strikers defeated them by eight wickets in their next match. The Renegades are placed fifth in the points table.
