With the current scheduling I assume the finals will be at 8am on weekday mornings?

Given how incompetent Cricket Australia administrators are, it could very well be.

Given how incompetent Cricket Australia administrators are, it could very well be.

The final will be at night.

The stadium series games will commence soon which will be interesting to see how that goes.

Finals Format for the WBBL:



1st , 2nd and 3rd from what I assume- will get home finals.

For Perths case, given they had one of the bigger crowds at WBBL this season, you could make a case to play that at a bigger venue than the WACA (which holds around 4k)

 

[Del125763]

And given the dates of 29th and 30th November being back-to-back, im assume maybe 1 host city for the Eliminator and Challenger?

I dont see a world where you could for instance be playing in Sydney on 29th November and then Perth on 30th November.

Weather in Sydney tonight for Sixers v Perth



I think we avoid the worst part of the bad weather today.

I think we avoid the worst part of the bad weather today.

Considering the game starts at 3.30pm hopefully rain won't play a part.

Game 41:


Teams:

Perth Scorchers Women (Playing XI): Beth Mooney(w), Sophie Devine(c), Maddy Darke, Nat Sciver-Brunt, Amy Jones, Amy Louise Edgar, Piepa Cleary, Alana King, Lilly Mills, Taneale Peschel, Chloe Ainsworth

Sydney Sixers Women (Playing XI): Ellyse Perry(c), Maitlan Brown, Ashleigh Gardner, Erin Burns, Chloe Tryon, Suzie Bates, Mathilda Carmichael, Kate Pelle(w), Kate Peterson, Linsey Smith, Lauren Cheatle

Sydney Sixers Women have won the toss and have opted to field

 

[Del125763]

That is a terrible shot from Nat Sciver-Brunt. A paddle sweep off Perry seriously?

 

[IKnowtheDog]

Erin Burns with one of the best outfield catches you'll ever see.

[Del125763]

Perth post 189 and Sixers will have to bat well to chase this down.

 

[CURVE]

I've pretty much missed the entire game, sadly I missed Erin Burns' great catch but thankfully I have missed the Sixers terrible batting. Maitlan Brown as an opener has failed, and everyone else except Perry is horribly out of form.

Standings after Game 41:

 

[Del125763]

A Scorchers Grand Final in Perth will easily clear 4k+ for crowds......

Game 42 in Brisbane:

Teams:

Hobart Hurricanes Women (Playing XI): Lizelle Lee(w), Bryony Smith, Elyse Villani(c), Nicola Carey, Heather Graham, Naomi Stalenberg, Ruth Johnston, Molly Strano, Amy Smith, Shabnim Ismail, Maisy Gibson

Hobart Hurricanes Women have won the toss and have opted to field

 

[Del125763]

Hobart chasing 122 to beat the Stars to keep them down in the bottom 2

 

[Del125763]

Sophia Dunkley hasn’t fired a shot at WBBL 09

 

[Del125763]

Its really dumb of the Stars recruiting to bank all of their 3 imports on 3 English batsman. Feel like they needed more variety with their imports for me.

 

[Del125763]

A loss today for Stars and its goodbye for 2023/24 season.

 

[Del125763]

Stars officially become the 2nd team eliminated from WBBL 9. Two Victorian teams out and Hobart will fancy their chances now with their next 2 fixtures against the Renegades .

 

[Del125763]

if the Hobart Hurricanes are thinking of making the Finals, they must beat the Sydney Thunder in their last game of the season.

Game 43 Brisbane v Renegades:

Melbourne Renegades Women (Playing XI): Tammy Beaumont, Hayley Matthews(c), Harmanpreet Kaur, Georgia Wareham, Jess Duffin, Courtney Webb, Josephine Dooley(w), Emma de Broughe, Sarah Coyte, Georgia Prestwidge, Sara Kennedy

Brisbane Heat Women (Playing XI): Grace Harris, Georgia Redmayne(w), Bess Heath, Amelia Kerr, Mignon du Preez, Charli Knott, Jess Jonassen(c), Georgia Voll, Courtney Sippel, Nicola Hancock, Lucy Hamilton

Brisbane Heat Women have won the toss and have opted to field
