Two struggling sides will face off in a must-win contest as Adelaide Strikers Women take on Brisbane Heat Women in the 23rd match of the Women’s Big Bash League 2025. The clash will take place on November 25, 2025, at the Karen Rolton Oval in Adelaide. So let’s have a look at AS-W vs BH-W 23rd Match Prediction.

Adelaide Strikers Women Looking for a Turnaround

Despite having several big names in their lineup, the Adelaide Strikers have not lived up to expectations, securing just one win from five matches.

In their last outing, they suffered a narrow one-run defeat against Perth Women, failing to chase 160 and finishing at 158 all out.

Darcie Brown impressed with two wickets, but the team needs collective improvement to move up from seventh place on the points table.

Brisbane Heat Women Still Searching for First Win

The Stars posted 171 thanks to Marizanne Kapp’s 91, while Heat struggled in response, finishing at 153/9.

Sitting at the bottom of the table, Brisbane Heat Women need a turnaround to stay alive in the season.
