Match Details
208 was always going to be an uphill target for the Brisbane Heat Women. Laura Kimmince and Georgia Voll provided sparks with the bat but the Heat never really threatened to successfully chase down the total. Ellie Falconer was the pick of the bowlers for the Renegades with a four-for against her name.
Melbourne Renegades Women stay on top of the pile of WBBL 07 with a comfortable 15-run win in the end. The Renegades flexed their batting muscle and notched the first 200+ score of the season. Jemimah Rodrigues and Eve Jones put on a 100-run opening partnership inside the first 10 overs to lay a strong platform. Harmanpreet Kaur then showed everyone why she is one of the most feared hitters in white ball cricket. She put on an exhilarating display of power hitting in her knock of 65 off just 32 balls. Each one of the Heat bowlers was taken to cleaners, with none of them able to contain the Renegades’ mighty batting firepower.
