Preview:                

Hobart Hurricanes Women will take on Perth Scorchers women in the 51st match of the WBBL 2020 on Saturday. The Hobart Hurricanes are almost out of the tournament with their two fixtures remaining, currently, they are at the bottom of the table with 8 points to their name.

It seems to be an absolutely impossible task for them to qualify for the knockouts having a net run-rate of -1.021 and need to depend on the other teams’ results as well if they win the next two matches. Their current form is not good as they lost three consecutive matches on the trot before coming into this match. It will be a must-win game and they need to win by a huge-margin to stay alive in the tournament.

On the other hand, with 5 wins, 5 loses, and 2 no results Perth Scorchers women are at 4th spot in the standings with 12 points in their bag. They need to win this match against the Hobart Hurricanes to confirm their knockout spot. The last two match results didn’t go their way as they lost to Brisbane Heat and Melbourne Stars in a close finish. Beth Mooney is the key player for them having scored 400 plus runs in this tournament. It’s going to be an important match as a win is a must for both teams.
