The second match of Saturday's double-header will have Perth Scorchers Women take on Brisbane Heat Women in the 39th match of the WBBL 2025. The game will be played on December 6 at the W.A.C.A. Ground in Perth. Both teams will have different goals as the league stage enters an important phase of the season, making this contest important. Perth aim to stay alive in the playoff race while Brisbane want to end their tough season on a positive note. Perth Scorchers Women The Perth Scorchers Women have won five games and lost four, and they are right in the middle of the playoff fight. They cannot afford any more slip-ups. In their recent 30-run win against Melbourne Renegades Women, they kept their hopes alive and showed signs of improvement for the Scorchers. Another disciplined performance, particularly with the bat, is what the Scorchers need to attain a strong position on the points table. With the pressure increasing, Perth must bring their best cricket into play to not fall behind in the playoff race. Brisbane Heat Women The Brisbane Heat Women are yet to win a game this season. They have been badly hurt by the absence of the star batter Jemimah Rodrigues, and things haven’t just clicked for them thus far. Already out of the playoff race, they still have an opportunity to have a say in the standings by causing an upset or two. With no pressure of qualification, Brisbane might play more freely, and they will look to spoil Perth’s hopes and grab a morale-boosting win before the season ends.

Presently, she is the third-highest run-scorer in WBBL 2025. Her calm approach, finding gaps, and smart boundary hitting make her the most important batter for Perth. If she stays long at the crease, Perth's chances improve immensely. Alana King | PS-W: Alana King, arguably one of the best leg-spinners in world cricket, has struggled this season. Her wickets tally is low and economy rate higher than usual. Despite the tough run, she remains a crucial bowler for the Scorchers and Perth will hope she finds her rhythm on a pitch that can assist spin later in the game.
