WBBL final tale of the tape
Final: Sydney Sixers (1st) v Perth Scorchers (2nd)
When: Saturday, January 28, 1.45pm AEDT at the WACA Ground
Head to Head: Sixers 3, Scorchers 1
Last time they met: January 9 at the SCG - Sixers bt Scorchers by 4 wickets with 3 balls remaining
Titles: Scorchers 0, Sixers 0
KEY PLAYERS:
Scorchers - Suzie Bates. The Scorchers skipper will need to produce her best with both bat and ball in order to help her team get over the line. Bates was in a mini-slump with the bat during the middle part of the season, but scores of 28 and 27no in her past two outings have boosted her confidence.
Sixers - Alyssa Healy. The wicket-keeper batsman set the tone for Wednesday's demolition of Hobart with a blistering 77 off 45 balls. The knock included 10 fours and two sixes - sending a shudder through the rest of the competition. If she lets loose again on a fast WACA outfield, the Scorchers will be in big trouble.
Sixers squad: Alyssa Healy (c), Sarah Aley, Ashleigh Gardner, Kim Garth, Jodie Hicks, Marizanne Kapp, Carly Leeson, Emily Leys, Sara McGlashan, Angela Reakes, Lauren Smith, Lisa Sthalekar, Dane Van Niekerk.
Scorchers squad: Suzie Bates (c), Nicole Bolton, Katherine Brunt, Mathilda Carmichael, Piepa Cleary, Lauren Ebsary, Heather Graham, Katie Hartshorn, Emma King, Chloe Piparo, Anya Shrubsole, Emily Smith, Elyse Villani.
