Sydney Thunder are backing an unchanged line-up to take on the Melbourne Renegades at Drummoyne Oval tomorrow morning.
Their return home has come with a major boost following back-to-back wins including last night’s convincing 41-run victory over Brisbane Heat at Allan Border Field.
Tahlia Wilson’s second straight player of the match performance saw her cross the 1000 runs mark following a knock of 79 off 51 balls, becoming the 46th WBBL player to do so. England recruit Em Arlott took three wickets on her debut in the lime-green.
Sydney Thunder Coach Lisa Keightley said:
“Yesterday was no doubt our best performance with the bat.
“Tahlia Wilson continues to impress at the top of the order and her stint set the platform for us from the start, providing a strong number to defend.
“We’ve gone with the same squad for our return to Drummoyne as we feel we’ve started to build momentum that can get us our third straight win.”
