Sydney Sixers Women will take on Adelaide Strikers Women in the 40th match of the WBBL 2025 season. The match will be played at North Sydney Oval in Sydney, on Sunday, December 7. 

 

Sydney Sixers Women

 

Sydney Sixers Women had found their rhythm until they met the defending champions, Melbourne Renegades. Their winning momentum was halted with a 6-wicket defeat against the Renegades. While batting first, they were restricted to just 130 runs for the loss of 9 wickets. Ellyse Perry was yet again the top performer with a 65-run knock. However, the Renegades chased it within 16.2 overs with the help of Georgia Wareham's unbeaten 49 runs. They will have to win this game to remain in contention for the qualification race.

 

Adelaide Strikers Women

 

The Adelaide Strikers had a not-so-impressive WBBL campaign this season, sitting at sixth in the table with just 9 points from their 9 games. They will be coming into this game on the back of a two-match winning streak, beating Brisbane Heat Women by 6 wickets. Their recent match against the Hobart Hurricanes was abandoned due to rain, which affected their qualification scenarios as well. Before the rain interruption, the Strikers had completed their innings, scoring 167 runs in 20 overs. Now they will have to register a victory here to remain hopeful of their knockout chances, and it will also depend on the other teams' performances. Currently, the Adelaide Strikers Women are placed in fifth spot in the points table.
