Players to watch

This match-up will be the last one for Danni Wyatt-Hodge before she departs for England's tour of South Africa. She has contributed some entertaining knocks but will want to go out with a bang at home for 'Canes.

Her opening partner Lizelle Lee will come into this game with extra attention after hitting the highest WBBL score in history with her 150 not out against the Scorchers.

While it has been a tough run of games for the Strikers, import Smriti Mandhana and captain Tahlia McGrath have stood tall for their side, showing their class with the bat. The Strikers will be hoping that a strong performance from the two experienced players can get them their second win for the season.

Head-to-head

What's on the line?

Both sides have four games left this season and the Strikers will have to win every game from here to be a chance for the finals.

The Hurricanes currently have a finals place in their grasp but are one of the four teams on six points fighting it out for top-four berths, making this clash crucial.

This firms as a must win game for the finals hopes of both sides with the Strikers' championship defence hinging on the result in Hobart.
