Probable Hobart Hurricanes Women’s Playing XI against the Sydney Thunder women:

Top Order:

At the top, the Hobart women have an experienced duo of Danielle Wyatt and Lizelle Lee as their openers. The Anglo-African pair can be a nightmare to their opponents when in flow. In the first match, neither of them shined. While Lee was dismissed for 7(9), Wyatt managed to score 18(18). Given their caliber, the duo would want to put on a better performance.

Nicola Carey at number 3 will be the player to watch out for. She won her side the game against the Thunder women shining both as a batter and as a bowler. With the bat, she posted 52(38). With the ball, she claimed 1/18 in her 3 overs. Nicola won the Player of the Match award in her previous game and would be hoping to put on a similar performance.

Middle Order:

In the middle order, the Hurricanes women have a good mix of experience and youth. Elyse Villani led them well in the first match. Additionally, she did well as a batter herself, scoring 21(15), which was important in the context of the match. To follow her would be Heather Graham. She had a bad outing with the bat in the first match.

Graham’s 2(8) momentarily damaged her side’s run rate. However, she more than made up for it with the ball by claiming 3/19 in her 4 overs. She would be hoping to improve as a batter. Chloe Tryon could continue at 6. She was dismissed for 0(3) with the bat. However, Chloe was good with the ball, claiming 2/19 in her 3 overs. The duo provides a good balance to the Thunder women with their all-round skills.

Lower Middle Order:

In the lower middle order, the Hurricanes women have the likes of Tabatha Saville and Kathryn Bryce. Saville played an impactful knock with the bat. Her unbeaten 23(16)* helped Hobart to reach a total of 141 runs. Every team needs someone like her who could maximize the scoring opportunities by good rotation of strike. She is their designated finisher at number 7.

At number 8, the Hurricanes women have Kathryn Bryce. While she did not have a good outing in the first game, Bryce can be trusted to deliver the goods in the remainder of the tournament. The skipper might have to trust her and give her more overs. Against the Thunder women, she bowled a solitary over and conceded 14 runs. 

Bowlers:

The Hurricanes women have a young bowling attack. They were omw of the key reasons behind their side’s good start to the season. Molly Strano started on a good note. Her spell of 4 overs included a maiden over and a wicket. She played an impactful cameo lower down the order. Her 9(5) ensured that the Hurricanes women had the momentum heading into the second innings.

Lauren Smith bowled well too. In her spell of 3 overs, the emerging star claimed 2/17. She would be hoping to deliver a similar performance in her second match of the season. Callie Wilson did not have a role to play in the first match. She neither got an opportunity to bat nor to bowl. She was good as a fielder and would be hoping to get an opportunity to bat and bowl.
