The Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL) earlier this month and the first match was played between Melbourne Stars facing Sydney Sixers Women. However, Sydney Sixers Women had won the toss and elected to field first. Moreover, Melbourne Stars went off to a flying start.

However, Shafali Verma failed to impress with the bat. She could not score big as she is known for in the arena of Women’s cricket. Moreover, Shafali was dismissed for just 8 runs from 10 balls which were not impressive at all. But Sydney Sixers went on to win the match comfortably due to the crucial innings of Aj Healy.
