Riding high on confidence, Sydney Thunder Women will look to build on their impressive opening performance when they lock horns with Brisbane Heat Women in the sixth match of the ongoing Women's Big Bash League (WBBL) on Sunday in Sydney. Sydney Thunder got off to a promising start to their WBBL campaign, registering a convincing six-wicket victory over Melbourne Renegades Women in their opening game.
Brisbane Heat Women, meanwhile, will look to bounce back after suffering a four-wicket defeat against Sydney Sixers Women in their opening match. The Heat were unable to begin their campaign on a winning note and will look to rebound to make a good comeback. They will be boosted by the presence of Indian star Yastika Bhatia, who has joined the squad and will likely make her Heat debut.
