STW vs HHW Team Previews

Sydney Thunder Women

Thunder didn’t get the best of starts to its campaign as it received a crushing defeat at the hands of the Hurricanes in their opening game. However, these are still early days in the tournament and the team will hope to bounce back.

Sydney Thunder has a strong opening pair in the form of Chamari Athapaththu and Georgia Voll. The duo is known for its aggressive brand of batting and if one of them gets going, Thunder can expect plenty of runs during the Powerplay.

The middle order is made up of experienced batters like Phoebe Litchfield, Anika Learoyd, Georgia Adams, and Tahlia Wilson. However, the team does lack depth in its batting and has a long tail. The bowlers did a decent job in the previous match and will hope to do the same here as well.

Shabnim Ismail and Sammy Jo-Johnson are likely to begin with the new ball while Samantha Bates will lead the spin department.

Hobart Hurricanes Women

The Hobart Hurricanes, powered by a brilliant performance of its bowlers, made a winning start to their season. The win not only earned them two points but they also enjoy the best NRR among all teams.

Hobart’s strength comes from the team’s plenty of all-rounders. Nicola Carey scored a half-century in the previous game and also picked up a wicket. Similarly, the likes of Heather Graham, Chloe Tryon, and Kathryn Bryce are all more than capable of contributing with the bat as well as the ball.

The opening pair of Lizelle Lee and Danielle Wyatt got a good start but wasn’t able to convert it into a big knock. Hobart also has Tabatha Saville batting lower down the order and she can play the role of a finisher.

Coming to the bowling, the spinners led by Molly Strano, Lauren Smith, Heather Graham, and Chloe Tryon picked up 8 wickets between them. The seam department does seem a bit understaffed with Kathryn Bryce being the only front-line seamer.

STW vs HHW Toss Prediction

The team winning the toss will likely opt to bowl first.

Pitch and Conditions

The pitch at the North Sydney Oval is balanced during the first half of the match. The seamers will get a lot of help with the new ball. The pitch is flat and has a covering of grass that allows for seam movement. However, as the ball gets older, batting becomes easier.

A score of around 160 is a par score at this venue. The pitch evens out a lot during the second inning.

The weather is likely to be pleasant with temperatures of around 20 degrees. There might be some drizzle that could interrupt the game.

STW vs HHW Betting Tips

Hobart put up an excellent performance in the previous match, particularly in the bowling department. We expect them to build up on those positives and play some good cricket yet again. Sydney Thunder did show some glimpses of its full potential and as it returns on home turf they will put up a good fight.

Bet on Hobart Hurricanes W to win.
