Beth Mooney has scored in the double digits in each of the Heat’s eight games. With 441 runs to her name, Mooney will be aiming for another such performance at the top of the Brisbane Heat batting unit. Her counterpart, Meg Lanning has shown glimpses of what she is capable of so far.

Jess Jonassen has taken up responsibility with both bat and ball. She is a worth-while pick for this game with the Aussie all-rounder already accounting for eight wickets in WBBL 2019 so far. These players should be picked in your Dream11 Fantasy team.
