The Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL) 2025 carries on with Match 23, which sees Adelaide Strikers Women (AS-W) play Brisbane Heat Women (BH-W) on Tuesday 25th November at the Karen Rolton Oval in Adelaide. Both teams have had a rough season thus far and will want to change that.

The Adelaide Strikers Women have not had a good run so far. They have won only one match out of five and are placed near the bottom of the points table. Their players have shown some good moments, but they haven’t been able to perform well throughout the matches. The Strikers will now hope to win in front of their home crowd.

The Brisbane Heat Women are also having a difficult season. They are still looking for their first win, as nothing has gone right for them in their matches. Both their batting and bowling have been inconsistent. With the tournament more than halfway through, Brisbane will be eager to finally put points on the board and end the season on a positive note.

AS-W vs BH-W: Pitch Report

The pitch at the Karen Rolton Oval usually offers true bounce, making it good for batting early in the innings. Seamers can obtain movement with the new ball and spinners may get some turn later on. The teams batting first have generally played well here, and teams winning the toss will likely ask to bat first based on the past record.
