The 13th match of the Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL) 2024 will see the Melbourne Renegades take on the Adelaide Strikers at Junction Oval, Melbourne. Both teams, having experienced a mixed start to the tournament, are eager to claim their second win in this season’s league.
Currently, both the Renegades and the Strikers have registered just one victory out of their three matches. While they share similar win-loss records, the teams’ standings on the points table reflect contrasting performances. The Renegades, though only marginally better in run rate, have managed to secure a higher spot, whereas the Strikers sit at the bottom of the table due to a poorer net run rate.
