Top Picks for SUN vs NOR 11Wickets match
Grace Scivers had an impressive outing in the previous encounter for Sunrisers. She shined with the bat adding an unbeaten 34 to take the team past victory. Not only this, but the 17-year-old also scalped 1 wicket by conceding 16 runs and no boundaries at all in her spell, which makes her an incredible asset for the match.
Sterre Kalis is another player who is expected to shine in this contest. She top-scored for the Diamonds in their first game and has the potential to grab the game with her belligerent display with the willow.
Sonali Patel has emerged as a player that one can definitely bank on. She ran through the top-order of Western Storm as she registered the figures of 2 for 26. Also, the teenager was economical throughout spells which adds on another aspect to her flair.
