Today Match Winning Percentage
Team Performance
Perth Scorchers Women: Perth Scorchers Women head into the knockouts after a strong, confidence-boosting win against the Melbourne Renegades, where they chased 151 to jump to fourth on the table. Their bowlers set up the match by dismantling the Renegades’ top order before Sophie Devine’s explosive 46 off 24 balls gave the chase early momentum. A mini-collapse triggered by Alice Capsey briefly slowed them down, but young duo Freya Kemp and Lily Mills calmly finished the job.
This performance reflects Perth’s overall season — not always perfect, but resilient, dangerous, and capable of winning key moments when it matters most.
Melbourne Stars Women: Melbourne Stars Women head into the knockouts after a season that never really settled into one rhythm. Their last game, cut short by rain, didn’t help either—they were stuck with a 10-over dash and ended up on 66/6 after a steady start suddenly turned messy once they tried to push the scoring. Even so, most of the hard work had already been done earlier in the tournament. Meg Lanning carried the batting on her shoulders more than once, and Sophie Day and Kim Garth kept things tight with the ball throughout the season. Their net run rate alone shows how strong they looked in their better games, even if the odd off-day crept in.
The final match wasn’t the kind of lead-in any team would want, but the Stars still walk into the knockouts with enough firepower and bowling options to bother anyone if they get going.
