WBBL 2024: Match 33, ST-W vs MS-W Match Prediction

Sydney Thunder (ST-W) have had a spectacular Women's Big Bash League 2024 season so far, winning five out of their eight matches and their last game against city-rivals Sixers was called off due to rain. Now, with 11 points to their name in eight games, Thunder are currently at the top of the points table and will next challenge Melbourne Stars (MS-W), on Wednesday, November 20, at the Drummoyne Oval, in Sydney.

Meanwhile, the Stars had an underwhelming season as the Annabel Sutherland-led side is at the bottom of the table. They lost four back-to-back games and are on the verge of elimination. None of their plans worked well in these games as the team would be hoping to improve both their batting and bowling performance.
