Even though Hobart Hurricanes are currently three points ahead of Melbourne Renegades in the table, the Sophie Molineux-led side has the ability to defeat Hobart and continue with their winning momentum. After a disappointing start to the tournament, the Renegades finally defeated Sydney Thunder after six consecutive defeats in the tournament. Thus, their match against Hobart on Monday, November 7 will be crucial for them as the team aims to qualify for the playoffs of the Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL).

In order to do so, Sophie Molineux once again has to lead the team by example. Be it in batting or bowling, the 24-year-old has been sensational so far in the tournament. She along with Courtney Webb registered a much-needed win for the Renegades in the last match but there still are a lot of areas that the team needs to address. The top order was in shambles in the last match and the team lacks depth in the bowling department. 

Now, coming to Hurricanes, South Africa international Mignon du Preez’s 73 off 54 went in vain as Elyse Villani-led side failed to defend 164 runs against Brisbane Heat in their last match. Other than Molly Strano and Maisy Gibson, all the other bowlers leaked a lot of runs while the batters failed to put up a show. 

Match Details:

Venue: Bellerive Oval, Hobart

Date and Time: November 7, 1:40 PM IST

Telecast & Live Streaming Details: Sony Sports Network and Sony Liv app

Pitch Report: 

The surface at Hobart will help the spinners but batters can score runs once settled in. The team winning the toss should bowl first and restrict the opponent within 160.

MR-W vs HB-W Women Probable XIs

Melbourne Renegades:

Hayley Matthews, Chamari Athapaththu, Josephine Dooley(w), Sophie Molineux(c), Courtney Webb, Carly Leeson, Rhiann O Donnell, Sarah Coyte, Georgia Prestwidge, Ella Hayward, Shabnim Ismail

Hobart Hurricanes:

Elyse Villani(c), Lizelle Lee(w), Rachel Trenaman, Mignon du Preez, Heather Graham, Nicola Carey, Ruth Johnston, Naomi Stalenberg, Hayley Jensen, Maisy Gibson, Molly Strano

Probable Top Performers

Probable best batter:
Carly Leeson:

With 167 runs from eight matches, the 23-year-old Carly Leeson has been Melbourne Renegades’ leading run-scorer in the tournament. She has played a crucial role in the middle and played multiple cameos to help the Renegades get to a decent score.

Probable best bowler:
Maisy Gibson: 

Leg-spinners have done well so far in the tournament and Maisy Gibson is no different. The 26-year-old clinched 10 wickets so far from seven matches and can be really dangerous in a spin-friendly track of Hobart.
