Sydney Thunder young gun Lucy Finn returns to the 13-player squad ahead of tomorrow night's Weber WBBL|12 clash against Melbourne Stars at Drummoyne Oval.
Sydney Thunder make one change for return home
Finn replaces Hasrat Gill, with Head Coach Lisa Keightley highlighting the young allrounder's ability to contribute with both bat and ball, providing valuable versatility and depth to Thunder's line-up.
Sydney Thunder Head Coach Lisa Keightley said:
“It’s exciting to be back home, and hopefully we can build some momentum. We’re looking forward to putting in a strong performance, and getting another win in front of our home crowd is exactly what we’re aiming for.
"Lucy Finn gives us an option of making that happen. We've seen what she can do at Drummoyne Oval and I've got no doubt she can do it again tomorrow night if she's in the eleven.”
Thunder batting star Heather Knight also spoke to media this morning following her Player of the Match performance in Perth on Wednesday. Click here for full interview.
