BH W vs ST W Live Streaming: Match Preview
The Jess Jonassen-led Brisbane Heat have had a torrid time, having lost all three of their matches so far. Their batting hasn’t really clicked, and the middle order tends to choke under pressure. Meanwhile, Phoebe Litchfield’s Sydney Thunder managed only one win from four outings, finally ending their losing streak with a nine-wicket win over Perth Scorchers in their last match. With momentum slightly their way, Thunder will look to build consistency and rise up the points table.
The two teams last faced each other in this very venue in the Challenger last season, as Brisbane won convincingly with nine wickets. However, both teams are yet to find their rhythm this season, and the clash is important for respective campaigns.
