The defending champions of the Women's Big Bash League (WBBL), Perth Scorchers are enduring a rough patch as they have now lost two of their last three fixtures. On the other hand, Melbourne Renegades are facing problems of their own as they have seven of their 10 games. Their most recent outing was the match against Sydney Sixers which ended in no result due to rain.
Meanwhile, considering the present case scenario of both sides, the teams will look to get the better of the other and climb up the points table. However, the weather in Melbourne does not seem promising for a full-fledged match but it remains to be seen what transpires.
Perth Scorchers are currently standing in fourth place with 11 points but with a negative net run rate of 0.016, whereas Melbourne Renegades are currently in second place from the bottom of the table with just five points and will quickly need to hit the ground running to keep any hopes of progressing to the elimination rounds alive.
