Betting Tips

The top batter Ellyse Perry to score over 28 runs in this contest

1.85

Ellyse Perry was in sublime touch in the last game, hitting 86 from 62 balls. She is also averaging 59.88 in her last ten games with a top strike rate of 145.15.

Sophie Ecclestone to emerge as the top bowler for this contest

3.95

This slow left-arm orthodox spin bowler has picked up 25 wickets in the WBBL. She has an excellent record in domestic T20 competitions, so you can bet on her to emerge as the top bowler for the contest.

The first dismissal of the first innings for Sydney to be caught

1.55

This is a batting-friendly track; therefore, the batters might opt for aerial shots early in the innings. So, the first wicket of the first innings is likely to be caught.

MSW vs SSW Toss Prediction

We have seen as many as 43 domestic T20 games played at the venue of Junction Oval in Melbourne. The teams batting first have won 23 games, while the teams chasing a target have won twenty. This shows a slight edge for the team batting first. So, we expect the skipper winning the coin flip to opt to bat first.

Pitch and Conditions

The weather conditions at Junction Oval in Melbourne will be sunny, with occasional cloud cover during the contest. The temperature during the game will be close to 19 degrees. The surface at Junction Oval will be friendly to batters. To feel safe on this track, you can expect the team batting first to score close to 140 runs.

MSW vs SSW Betting Tips

There is quite a bit of a gap between the positions of Melbourne Stars and Sydney Sixers. However, most of the teams in the league stage are currently on four points. So, this gap is mainly due to the net run rate. But Melbourne Stars have played just three games compared to four games played by Sydney Sixers. The Melbourne women's outfit is also playing at home. That is also an advantage. They have won four out of their last five games. So, we reckon Melbourne Stars will start as favorites to win the encounter.

Bet on Melbourne Stars to win.
