We have had a good start to the Women's Big Bash League 2025. The 5th game is underway, with the defending champions, Melbourne Renegades Women, facing the Sydney Thunder Women. The Renegades Women started with a win, defeating the Brisbane Heat Women, while the Sydney Thunder Women suffered a loss against the Hobart Hurricanes Women in their first game.

The Melbourne Renegades Women have an impressive record against the Sydney Thunder Women. Starting the tournament with a win will give them confidence. The Sydney Thunder Women's last game was a struggle with the ball and they need to improve in that area.
