Women's Big Bash League 2021: Match 6, Melbourne Stars Women vs Hobart Hurricanes Women - Probable 11s, Weather Forecast, Pitch Report, Match Prediction and Live Streaming Details
The Melbourne Stars and Hobart Hurricanes will lock horns in the sixth match of the WBBL on Tuesday at the Bellerive Oval in Hobart.
The Hurricanes, led by Rachel Priest, haven’t had the best of starts to their campaign in the 2021 WBBL. The team has lost its first two matches against the Melbourne Renegades and Sydney Sixers. In their previous game, the Sixers beat them by five wickets.
Richa Ghosh scored 46, but the Hurricanes could only set the Sixers a target of 126 to chase down. Thereafter, Shafali Verma’s 57 blew them away. Spinner Molly Strano picked up three wickets, but she didn’t get a whole lot of support from the other bowlers.
The Stars, captained by Meg Lanning, are also yet to register their maiden win in the WBBL. The Stars lost to the Sixers by six wickets to begin their campaign. In the rain-curtailed 11-over game, the team failed to defend 99 as the Sixers chased the target down with four balls left.
Full squad named for our midweek double-header 👊

Melbourne Stars Women vs Hobart Hurricanes Women Probable 11s
Melbourne Stars Women
Elyse Villani and Meg Lanning will have to play a major role for the Stars. Lanning has scored heavily for them over the years. Annabel Sutherland is a handy all-rounder. The bowlers lacked a bit of bite last time around and need to put forth a strong showing.
Probable XI: Elyse Villani, Annabel Sutherland, Meg Lanning (c), Maia Bouchier, Kim Garth, Nicole Faltum (wk), Tess Flintoff, Anna Lanning, Maddy Darke, Sophie Day, Rhys McKenna
Rhys McKenna dismissing Ellyse Perry with just her fourth ball in the @WBBL is here for you this afternoon.
