Bellerive Oval, Hobart Pitch Report

The Bellerive pitch gives a fair contest. Runs don’t come easily early on. But once a batter is set, she can score well.
There have been two games here this season, and both went to the last ball.
- Hobart made 154/7 against the Renegades. The Renegades won off the final ball.
- Hobart made 138/5 against the Strikers. The Strikers also won off the final ball.
Spin bowlers have done well here. Sophie Molineux took 4/22 for the Renegades, and Molly Strano took 2 wickets against the Strikers. Fast bowlers have taken wickets too, so it’s not a pitch only for spinners.
Cricket Australia said Hobart’s 138 was not enough, but 154 led to a last-ball finish. So a score of around 150 should make it a close game. The chasing team won both games here. That suggests batting second is a little easier.

HH-W vs BH-W Weather Report: Hobart
Rain is a real worry. The Bureau of Meteorology gives Hobart a 95% chance of showers on Saturday, with 4 to 15 mm of rain possible.
The good news is that the showers are most likely in the morning and should ease later. The game starts at 3:40 PM local time, so we may still get a full game. It will be about 21°C at best. Keep an eye on the radar, because DLS could come into play.

Top Picks for HH-W vs BH-W Fantasy Prediction
These players stand out based on their recent form and stats.
Top Batting Picks
- Georgia Redmayne (BH-W, WK): 324 runs in her last 10 games at an average of 40.5. She hit 74 not out off 50 balls against the Stars. She also keeps wicket, so she gets catch points too.
- Nicola Carey (HH-W, ALL): 199 runs in her last 9 games at an average of 49.75. She made 66 not out and took 1/30 in her last game at this ground.
- Charli Knott (BH-W, ALL): 282 runs in her last 10 games at a strike rate of 130.55. She hit 104 off 61 balls against the Strikers, and she can bowl too.
- Lizelle Lee (HH-W, WK): 212 runs in her last 10 games at a strike rate of 137.66. She opens and scores fast when she gets going.
Top Bowling Picks
- Molly Strano (HH-W, BOWL): 13 wickets in her last 10 games, with a wicket every 14.3 balls. She took 2 wickets here against the Strikers.
- Sarah Glenn (BH-W, BOWL): 11 wickets in her last 7 games at an economy of 6.78. That is the best economy in this match, and she took 1/21 against the Stars.
- Heather Graham (HH-W, ALL): 10 wickets in her last 10 games at an economy of 7.74. She took 3/24 at this ground against the Renegades.
- Lucy Hamilton (BH-W, ALL): 10 wickets in her last 10 games at an economy of 7.69. She is the Heat’s main left-arm fast bowler.
Fantasy Captain and Vice-Captain Choices
For Small League Team
- Georgia Redmayne (Captain):She has 324 runs in her last 10 games, the most of anyone in this match. She opens, keeps wicket and just made 74 not out, so she has lots of ways to score points.
- Nicola Carey (Vice-Captain): She has 199 runs at an average of 49.75 and bowls four overs too. She is Hobart’s best player right now, with bat and ball.
For Grand League Team
- Molly Strano (Captain):She takes a wicket every 14.3 balls, the best rate in this match, and spin works well at Bellerive. Most people will pick Redmayne as captain, so Strano can help you beat them.
- Charli Knott (Vice-Captain): She hit 104 earlier this season, and she bowls too. Fewer people will pick her as vice-captain, so a big game from her gives you an edge.

HH-W vs BH-W Toss Prediction
Toss Prediction: Bowl first
The chasing team won both games at Bellerive this season, but both went to the last ball, so it is a small sample. With rain about, knowing the target and any DLS par score helps the chasing side. So bowling first looks like the smart call.
HH-W vs BH-W Prediction
Prediction: Brisbane Heat Women to Win
The Heat have won three in a row, and they beat this same Hobart team last week. Redmayne, Knott and Prendergast are all scoring runs, and Glenn and Hamilton keep taking wickets.
The Hurricanes are at home, and Carey and Strano are playing well. They have also lost two games by the smallest margin possible. But they have lost five in a row, and their top order is struggling. The Heat look stronger.
For the Small League team, Georgia Redmayne is the safest captain, with 324 runs at an average of 40.5. For the Grand League team, Molly Strano is a good risky pick because she takes a wicket every 14.3 balls.
The Heat are favourites. They have won three games in a row, while the Hurricanes have lost all five of their games.
The toss prediction is to bowl first. The chasing team won both games at Bellerive this season, and rain could make the DLS target important.
It gives a fair contest. Both games here this season went to the last ball, and spinners have taken plenty of wickets. A score of about 150 should be competitive.
The match starts at 10:10 AM IST (3:40 PM local) on November 14, 2026. Showers are likely in Hobart, but they should ease by the afternoon, so a full game is still possible.
