Player of the Match: Chamari Athapaththu
12:07 IST & 17:37 Local Time| Chamari Athapaththu finishes the game in style! Sydney Thunder Women have beat the Table Toppers of the WBBL by 9 wickets. They have chased down the target in 16.1 overs.

Earlier in the game, Sydney Thunder Women won the toss and opted to field against Perth Scorchers Women. Beth Mooney's strong start (26 off 19 balls) was halted by Lauren Smith's LBW dismissal. Sophie Devine (15 off 18) fell to Sammy Jo-Johnson, and despite a few setbacks, Amy Jones provided a late boost with a quick 37 off 16 balls.

Perth Scorchers finished at 116/8 in 20 overs. Noteworthy bowling performances from Lauren Smith (2/12) and Chamari Athapaththu (2/23), with contributions from Samantha Bates, Hannah Darlington, Sammy Jo-Johnson, and Heather Knight, each taking a wicket.

While Chasing a modest target of 117 runs, Sydney Thunder faced an early setback with the loss of Phoebe Litchfield (8 off 11) in the 3rd over. Heather Knight joined forces with the experienced Chamari Athapaththu, who took charge aggressively, setting the run rate soaring.

Knight contributed with well-timed boundaries, leaving the Perth Scorchers Women's bowlers struggling. Athapaththu showcased her prowess with a remarkable 77*-run innings, 
supported by Knight's composed 32*, guided Sydney Thunder to a convincing victory in just 16.1 overs. 

From a bowling point of view, it wasn't a good day for the Perth Scorchers bowlers as they failed to make an impact today. All the bowlers went wicketless. Perth Scorchers were able to scalp just one wicket, that is of Phoebe Litchfield who got runout.

With this victory Sydney Thunder Women have climbed to the second spot in the WBBL points table and Perth Scorchers are on the first spot.
