Birmingham Phoenix Women vs London Spirit Women Chances of Winning

This will be a clash of the bottom two place holders in the standings. London Spirit Women started their campaign after two abandoned games. However, they stopped earning free points once they actually stepped in to play in the competition. They won a single game while conceding four defeats. They are placed at the 7th place with 4 points and a net run rate of -0.353.

On the other hand, Birmingham Phoenix Women are the only team in the competition to not have won any game during their course in the league. A series of defeats speaks volume about the team’s form in the competition. With 6 losses, they are placed at the bottom of the points table with 1 point and a net run rate of -0.457.

Although BP-W are placed at the bottom, they have a decent batting order but were not supported well enough by the bowling order. Playing at home could spark a need to win at least a game before they end their campaign, which could make all the difference in a high adrenaline encounter.

Birmingham Phoenix Women vs London Spirit Women Betting Tips

Phoenix has been in horrid form in the tournament and is still searching for their first win. They will be looking to close their campaign on a high note. Birmingham Phoenix Women lack a good bowling order, with a half-decent batting order and thus, finding it extremely hard to keep up.


London Spirit Women’s last game did not go in their favour. They met Welsh Fire Women and conceded way too many runs in the game. This was the main reason for their loss in the game. Sophie Munro was the most successful batter of the team and managed to take two picks whereas the middle order somehow handled things for a bit and prevented a more humiliating defeat. The match promises to be a close game with a lot of back and forths, and the result is in flux.

Birmingham Phoenix Women vs London Spirit Women Toss Prediction

Birmingham usually favours the team batting second in this competition. There’s also rain and light showers in Birmingham, and may delay the game. By batting second, they will have the advantage of knowing exactly what DLS target they will need to chase, allowing them to plan their innings accordingly.

Weather Report

We are expecting sunny weather during the game with some occasional cloud cover. As the match progresses you can get overcast conditions. The temperature during the game is expected to be close to 19 degrees.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win: London Spirit Women

In the latest match of the competition, London Spirit Women had to taste defeat against Welsh Fire Women by 23 runs. Batting first, WF-W raised 161 runs in their innings. LS-W bowlers were pretty ineffective and conceded a ton of runs. This made tough for the LS-W at chasing and finally laid their hands with 138 runs on the board. Richa Ghosh and Heather Knight scored 34 runs each in the game.

On the other hand, Birmingham Phoenix Women lost their fourth game in a row with the narrowest of the margin. They played against Trent Rockets Women and lost the game by 3 runs. Bowling first, BP-W conceded 134 runs in the game but managed to pick 6 of their wickets. Emily Arlott took 3 scalps. However, the team fell shy by 3 runs in the end. Amy Jones made a valiant effort with her innings of 46 runs off 30 balls.

Both sides have met twice before in the past seasons where both of them won a game each. These sides had a terrible campaign this season and as a consequence find themselves at the rock bottom. Birmingham Phoenix Women have made good efforts in the batting department. However, their bowlers have failed to keep the opponents at check and leaked too many runs. Their batters are reaching near the target but are tanking the game, unable to handle the nerves. Talking about London Spirit Women, their batters failed miserably and posted low totals consistently in the tournament. This made it very easy for others to grab easy points from the game. Comparing the two, BP-W’s batting order looks better and can win the fixture if their bowlers succeed at their job. With a home advantage, Birmingham Phoenix Women had a good chance at winning. Since, the odds favour LS-W, it is your chance at picking the right team to make a huge bonus.
