WBBL 2025: Bottom-placed Brisbane Heat pursue their first win as they meet Melbourne Stars
The Women’s Big Bash League rolls into its 22nd match on Sunday, with Brisbane Heat Women set to host Melbourne Stars Women at Allan Border Field. Both teams have experienced contrasting starts to their campaigns, and the upcoming match carries immense weight.
