WBBL 2022: Match 56, ST-W vs AS-W Match Prediction – Who will win today match between ST-W vs AS-W?

Sydney Thunder will clash with Adelaide Strikers in the 56th match of the Women's Big Bash League 2022 (WBBL) at North Sydney Oval on Sunday (November 20) in the last group-stage fixture  of the tournament.

The Thunder are struggling at a bottom of the league table with just one win from their 13 games. They suffered an 18-run defeat against Sydney Sixers in their last game while chasing a 179-run target.

Adelaide Strikers, on the other hand, registered a crucial eight-wicket win over Hobart Hurricanes in their latest game and are now placed in the fourth position in the league table with 15 points from the 13 games.

A win will boost them to the second position but they need some favourable results from the other games as well. Both teams settled for a point as rain washed out the first respective fixture this season.
