Hobart Hurricanes Women and Perth Scorchers Women contest the Women’s Big Bash League 2025-26 final at Bellerive Oval, Hobart, on December 13. The Hurricanes earned direct entry as ladder leaders, while the Scorchers advanced with recent playoff wins.
Hobart Hurricanes topped the regular season table but have not played a full match since early December, raising questions about match sharpness. Perth Scorchers enter with strong momentum, winning six of their last seven games, including an 11-run Challenger victory over Sydney Sixers.
The teams have met frequently in WBBL, with recent clashes showing competitiveness—Perth won by 4 wickets in November 2024 at W.A.C.A. Ground, while Hobart chased 204 earlier that season. Overall, encounters often produce close results, with several tied or narrow margins in prior years.

Bellerive Oval in Hobart presents a balanced pitch for the Women’s Big Bash League 2025 final between Hobart Hurricanes Women and Perth Scorchers Women. Typically offering even bounce and moderate pace, the surface assists seamers early under lights with the new ball, where swing could exploit any seam movement in cool evening conditions. Spinners like Hobart’s Molly Strange and Perth’s Alana King may find grip in the middle overs as the pitch slows slightly. Batters can expect true carry, with scores around 150-170 proving competitive; shorter boundaries favour aggressive stroke play later. Home advantage might help Hurricanes settle first, but dew could aid chasing.
