SYDW vs SYTW Team Previews

The Sixers were off to a poor start as it lost 5 of its first 6 matches. That cost the team dearly in the form of points and is 6th on the points table. The team has seen a resurgence of sorts in the last couple of weeks, winning 5 of the 7 matches. However, it has no chance of catching up with the top 4 even if they win this one.
Skipper Ellyse Perry has led her team from the front, contributing with both, the bat as well as the ball. She has scored 414 runs and has also picked up 12 wickets. Ashleigh Gardnertis another quality all-rounder on the team and together, this duo can make a significant impact during the match.

Sydney Thunder Women
Sydney Thunder W made a strong start to its campaign and was cruising towards an easy qualification to the playoffs. However, the team saw a sudden dip in form and has now lost 4 of its last 5 matches and has slipped down to the 4th spot. With the Hobart Hurricanes close on its heels, the Thunder will need to win here to be sure of its promotion.
Sri Lankan captain Chamari Athapaththu, who was almost a last-minute pick for the Thunder, has performed brilliantly with the bat, scoring 485 runs. She is the second-highest run-getter of this season. Tahlia Wilson has been another strong performer in the middle order, while Phoebe Litchfield and Heather Knight have played a couple of handy knocks.
However, the likes of Anika Learoyd and Olivia Porter have had a disappointing outing so far. Marizanne Kapp too has been a bit underwhelming with the bat. She has however bowled well, picking up 10 wickets. She, along with Athapaththu, Jo-Johnson, and Hannah Darlington makes up a potent seam attack. Darlington is the leading wicket-taker of the team with 18 wickets.
The spin department, consisting of Samantha Bates, Heather Knight, and Lauren Smith has picked up 18 wickets between them.

Pitch and Conditions
The pitch at the SCG is generally good to bat on, thanks to the good amount of pace and bounce it offers. However, the quicker bowlers can expect some assistance early on in the match as the ball does swing and seam a bit. The pitch settles down as the game progresses. The team batting first will look to get around the 150-run mark. It has been raining in Sydney over the past few days but the skies should be clear on Sunday with a temperature of around 25 degrees.

Phoebe Litchfield hasn’t been in the best of forms this season. She has crossed the 20-run mark just twice in the last 8 innings and we are predicting another poor outing for her.
