Pitch Report

With this being the first match to be played at the MCG of the ongoing WBBL season, it remains to be seen how the track plays out. There are a lot of middling scores which are attained at this venue.

Barring a couple of sub-10 scores, the wicketkeeper-batter has regularly got off to flying starts this season. More of the same will be expected from her on Friday, as the Scorchers aim to keep the winning momentum running.

Probable Best Bowler: Chloe Ainsworth

The young right-arm quick has been a sensation this season. After a total of six matches in this season so far, she has conceded at a frugal rate of only 5.04. Ainsworth will once again be under the spotlight when the two teams take centre-stage at the 'G'.
