Dream11 Prediction
Both these teams have done a commendable job in this year's WBBL. But it appears as if the Sydney Thunder team has a better overall team. They have several players in the team that are doing a good job such as Darlington and Athapaththu. But Perth also has some good players in their ranks as well. It is likely to be a close game of cricket and one or two things are likely to decide the outcome of this game. We will bet with Sydney Thunder women to win this contest.
