Match no 6 of the Women's Big Bash League 2025 pits Brisbane Heat Women against Perth Scorchers Women at Allan Border Field in Brisbane. Both teams lost their opening encounters and will look to come back stronger. Brisbane Heat had been the runners-up last season, and they will look to get into their rhythm once again. Perth Scorchers, on the other hand, will look to sort out their batting woes and open their account on the points tally. It will be a thrilling game as two strong sides go head-to-head against each other. Brisbane Heat Women It was not a very good start for the Brisbane Heat Women as they lost their first match of the tournament against Melbourne Renegades by seven wickets via the DLS method. Their batting struggled to put up a score of just 133 runs in 20 overs. Nadine de Klerk made a steady 40 off 38 balls, and Chinelle Henry chipped in with her share of big hits for 29 runs. Georgia Redmayne and Jess Jonassen were unable to convert their starts, which proved to be very costly for the final team total. For the bowlers, it was a painful affair as they couldn't defend just 66 runs in an 8-over truncated target. Sianna Ginger was the best bowler with two wickets while Lucy Hamilton took one. The Heat will need much better bowling performance and runs from the top order to turn things around. Perth Scorchers Women Perth Scorchers Women too began with a comprehensive defeat as they were beaten by 10 wickets against Sydney Sixers Women. Their batting seemed to fall short as they were bowled out for mere 109 runs. Mikayla Hinkley was the most influential with 31 runs, while Beth Mooney added 20. No other batter supported them well, which carried them to a below-par total. Bowlers were ineffective as well, and none of them could get at least one wicket defending that target. Alana King and Chloe Ainsworth leaked runs without any breakthrough. For a first victory, the Scorchers will need both departments to come into play.
