Perth Scorchers lead the Women’s 2021 Big Bash League title race
Sydney Sixers look to further solidify their WBBL success
Brisbane Heat to be challenged during their title defending campaign

Women’s Big Bash League action will soon be live for another exciting instalment of Australian cricket. According to our Big Bash League Women predictions, a third consecutive title win for defending champions Brisbane Heat looks unlikely. Consequently, top contenders Perth Scorchers and Sydney Sixers will be looking to get their hands on the 2020/2021 title. The 2020/2021 edition of the Women’s Big Bash League will run from 25 October to 29 November 2020. According to our 2021 Big Bash League Women predictions, Perth Scorchers are the current title favourites. Let’s see how their winning chances stand against some of the title hopefuls on Bet365 Sportsbook:

Perth Scorchers 4.00
Sydney Sixers 4.50
Brisbane Heat 7.00
Hobart Hurricanes 12.00

Perth Scorchers lead the title race on our 2021 Big Bash League Women predictions

Currently, Perth Scorchers stand the best chance of winning the Women’s 2020/2021 Big Bash League. However, the Scorchers have yet to claim a win in the women’s league. Fortunately, with leading odds of winning at 4.00, they could soon be celebrating their first WBBL title. Last season, Perth Scorchers recorded a respectable semi-finals appearance and will now be aiming for the top prize. Additionally, several of their players were among the league’s top performers particularly. For instance, Meg Lanning who made into the 2020 WBBL Team of the Tournament. Unfortunately for Scorchers fans, Lanning departed from the club. However, the signing of Sophie Devine from Adelaide Strikers will surely make up for the club’s big loss. Last season, Devine was named the Player of the Tournament and will be looking to achieve the same for the Scorchers. Consequently, our 2021 Big Bash League Women predictions have labelled Perth Scorchers a safe bet on Bet365 Sportsbook.

Sydney Sixers look to bounce back following poor 2019/2020 season

According to the online sportsbook news in Australia, Sydney Sixers are the most successful club in the competition. This is a result of two titles and finals appearances in the first four seasons. However, having recorded a poor fifth-place finish last season, they’ll be under pressure to bounce back this season. Fortunately, our 2021 Big Bash League Women predictions say they could potentially bounce back in style with this season’s title. Consequently, they’ll likely pose a threat to top contenders Perth Scorchers with odds at 4.50 on Bet365 Sportsbook. Additionally, their players to keep an eye this season are Marizanne Kapp and Ellyse Perry. They were named in the 2020 WBBL Team of the Year and could push the team for a third victory.

Brisbane Heat unlikely to record a successful title defending campaign

Currently, Brisbane Heat has the fourth-highest odds of winning the 2020/2021 WBBL season at 7.00 on Bet365 Sportsbook. They’ll start the season with the best record in the competition with two back to back titles from 2018/2019. However, our 2021 Big Bash League Women predictions say they’ll face some tough competition ahead of their title defending campaign. Consequently, all eyes will be on newly appointed captain Jess Jonassen to lead the club to a third-consecutive victory.

Hobart Hurricanes among longshots for the 2021 Women’s Big Bash League win

This season, Hobart Hurricanes (12.00) are among the teams with the lowest odds of winning the upcoming WBBL season. Additionally, their recent record in the competition makes them unfavourable candidates for this season’s win. According to our 2021 Big Bash League predictions and betting preview, the Hurricanes have never claimed a WBBL win. Furthermore, they’ve recorded finishes below seventh place in the last three seasons. Consequently, they’ll be a risky team to bet on with odds stacked against them on the online sportsbooks in Australia.
