MR W v ST W Live Streaming: Recent Form and Team Outlook
The Georgia Wareham-led Melbourne Renegades Women started their campaign on a winning note as they beat Brisbane Heat Women in their season opener. Asked to bowl first, Renegades kept Brisbane at 133/10 in 20 overs. Then the game reduced to eight overs due to rain, with a revised target of 68. Courtney Webb’s unbeaten 34 off 22 balls was supported aptly by Wareham as they won a crucial seven-wicket win under the DLS method. This will give the perfect boost to the Renegades’ confidence as they look to keep their momentum going.
The Sydney Thunder Women, led by Phoebe Litchfield, had a different kind of start to their campaign as they lost to the Hobart Hurricanes Women. Batting first, the Thunder managed 181/8, which was chased down comfortably by Hurricanes with six wickets in hand. However, despite the loss, Sydney Thunder have a hard-hitting batting lineup in the form of Litchfield, Heather Knight, and Chamari Athapaththu, which can turn games around anytime. They will surely look to come back stronger against Melbourne.

Melbourne Renegades Women v Sydney Thunder Women: Pitch Report
The Junction Oval is renowned for being quite batter-friendly, with consistent bounce and decent enough carry. The surface allows strokeplay and aggressive batting at the beginning of the overs, at least. Bowlers can expect some movement early on, but it often falls into high-scoring encounters as the match wears on. Batters should look to capitalize on the conditions early.
