ABOUT THE MATCH
Sydney Sixers will face Brisbane Heat in the 26th T20 of Women’s Big Bash League 2019. The match is scheduled to take place on November 9 at the North Sydney Oval.
Sydney Sixers earned their fourth win in the last match against Melbourne Stars. Alyssa Healy and Ellyse Perry’s unbroken 199-run opening partnership led the team to the win. The two Australian stars have been in good form and will hope to continue in this match too.
Brisbane, the defending champions, are now looking to build some momentum of their own after a nine-wicket defeat of Adelaide Strikers.
TOSS PREDICTION
Sydney Sixers amassed many runs as they put up a brilliant batting display last time round. However, they will opt to bat first this time too.
