Players to watch out:

Grace Harris

The 31-year-old all-rounder in the WBBL has amassed 2,841 runs from 125 outings, at an average of 24.92 and a strike rate of 130.80, while from 89 innings, she has claimed 66 wickets at an economy rate of 6.90. Grace has displayed outstanding form this season, amassing 264 runs from 9 outings, striking at 136.78 and averaging 33.00. She has been among the runs and will hopefully step up with another good knock.

Shikha Pandey

The 35-year-old all-rounder, in her maiden WBBL stint, has secured 11 wickets from 9 appearances at an economy rate of 6.48, with the best figures of 2/14. Shikha has emerged as a key wicket-taker for the Heat and can also be relied upon with the bat for cameos. Her consistency has been notable in this successful campaign, with recent returns of 1/21, 1/32, 2/25, and 2/31. She can be trusted to provide breakthroughs.

Ellyse Perry

The 34-year-old all-rounder, from 130 WBBL outings, has racked up 4,656 runs at an average of 49.01 and, from 120 innings, has claimed 70 wickets at an economy rate of 7.08, with best figures of 103* and 5/22. Ellyse has had a great season, especially with the bat, getting going with three fifties in four outings. After a string of low scores, she scored a solid 67 in her most recent outing and can be relied upon for the goods.

Lauren Cheatle

The 26-year-old left-arm pacer, from 87 WBBL innings, has picked up 89 wickets, including best figures of 4/20, while maintaining an economy rate of 6.79. Lauren has managed only 8 wickets this WBBL season and has been expensive with the ball, with an economy rate of 8.50. She has taken just 3 wickets in her last 5 outings but should be backed to spearhead the bowling attack and produce wickets upfront.

Pitch:

The deck at Allan Border Field is favorable for batting, with an average score in the 160s. As the match progresses, spinners can expect some assistance in the latter half, while pacers remain effective throughout.

Weather:

The conditions in Brisbane are expected to be pleasant for the game, with clear skies. The temperature is forecasted to hover around 21°C, with light winds and a humidity level of 62%.
