Southern Australia Women will be taking on Queensland for the final league game of the Women’s National Cricket League at the Allan Border Field in Brisbane. South Australia is yet to win a game this season and reside at the bottom of the league. Meanwhile, Queensland could push themselves to the second spot provided they win with a big margin.
