    What's the story

    Adelaide Strikers thrashed Sydney Sixers by 10 runs in the final to clinch their maiden Women's Big Bash League (WBBL) title.

    It was indeed a comprehensive victory as the Sixers struggled big time while chasing 148.

    Deandra Dottin starred for the Strikers with her all-round show. Skipper Tahlia McGrath also came good in the finals.

    Dottin and Darcie Brown took two wickets apiece.

    Third fifty of the tournament for Dottin

    While Dottin recorded her third fifty of the season, no other Strikers batter crossed the 50-run mark more than once.

    The West Indies star scored an unbeaten 37-ball 52 (4s: 6, 6s: 2).
