As the Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL) 2025 season progresses, the upcoming showdown between Sydney Sixers Women (Sixers) and Melbourne Stars Women (Stars) promises fireworks. Here’s a full preview, prediction, and what fans should watch out for. So Let’s take a look at SS-W vs MS-W 34th Match Prediction.

Sydney Sixers Women vs Melbourne Stars Women Recent Form & Context

  • In their most recent encounter (Match 17), Stars crushed the Sixers by 111 runs (DLS) — an emphatic win built on a mammoth 219/4 (with Meg Lanning 135 and Rhys McKenna 50) and a brutal bowling display where Kim Garth ripped through the Sixers for 4-3.

  • That loss was among the Sixers’ worst — they collapsed to 42 all out (in a rain-affected reduction) after a strong Stars innings.

  • Looking at the standings before Match 34: Stars are sitting near the top, with a good net run rate and momentum. Sixers are in the hunt but need consistency to stay competitive.

SS-W vs MS-W Key Players & Team Strengths

For Melbourne Stars Women

  • Meg Lanning — After her 135, she’s once again the backbone of their top order, capable of playing long innings and anchoring the chase.

  • Kim Garth — Her recent 4-wicket haul underlines why she’s a major threat. She brings both pace and control, especially effective against fragile batting lineups.

  • Rhys McKenna — A rising young bat who complements Lanning well. Her aggressive starts can set up huge totals.

For Sydney Sixers Women

  • Ellyse Perry and Alyssa Healy — Experienced match-winners. If they fire together, Sixers can post a competitive total or chase big scores.

  • Ashleigh Gardner and supporting bowlers — They need to step up to contain Stars’ batters, particularly Lanning and McKenna.

SS-W vs MS-W Pitch Conditions & Game Plan

The match is likely to be played at a batting-friendly venue, with conditions favouring stroke play and quick outfields. Spinners may play a role in the middle overs if the ball grips. Given this, both teams may aim for first-innings totals in the 160–180 run range. If Stars bat first and post a big score, Sixers will need a disciplined bowling plan and a solid start to chase. Conversely, if Sixers bat first, setting 165+ could put pressure on Stars.

Sydney Sixers Women vs Melbourne Stars Women Match Prediction & Likely Outcome

Stars have the upper hand — if their top order fires and Kim Garth delivers with the ball, they are favourites to win. A Stars victory by 6–8 wickets seems likely, or a 10–15 run win if they bat first and post a big total. That said, Sixers aren’t out — a strong performance from Perry, Healy and Gardner could level the contest.
