Our Prediction

Favorites to win: Southern Brave Women

Southern Brave are having a similar season like their last one in the current tournament. They dived into the competition with a win but lost their next game against Welsh Fire Women. However, they retaliated in their previous outing against Northern Superchargers Women and won the game by 5 wickets. Going in to bowl first, Southern Brave conceded only 100 runs in the game with the help of super economical deliveries of the team’s bowling order. Linsey Smith and Georgia Wareham picked 2 wickets in the game. Despite the low target, the Brave had a few hiccups in the chase but registered a win with 5 wickets and 13 balls to spare. Maia Bouchier scored 31 runs in the game, highest in the team.

London Spirit have players like Heather Knight, Amelia Kerr, Grace Harris, Richa Ghosh, etc who did not have a chance to showcase their abilities in the competition so far, since both their games were abandoned due to bad weather. But they will have a tough time to replace Beth Mooney (205 runs), as she has decided not to return to the Hundred.

Moreover, the odds will favour Southern Brave Women to win this affair. SB-W and LS-W have clashed twice in the history of the competition where SB-W grabbed both the victories. Last season, they collided in their first game of the season where LS-W scored 155 runs in the game with the help of Mooney’s unbeaten innings of 97. SB-W outscored them and won the game by 6 wickets. Southern Brave Women have looked very strong before and will continue to dominate in the competition whereas London Spirit Women will have to try harder with the absence of Mooney in the team. We predict SB-W to win the match.
