Team Previews
Yorkshire Women Preview
Yorkshire Women enter this clash with solid confidence, having convincingly chased down 105 runs in just 12.4 overs in their last match. Their top order shone with G Boyce (42 runs) and A Oliver (39 runs) leading the charge with a commanding 74-run partnership. This solid foundation allowed the team to dominate the game with ease. Duckworth, Nightingale, and M Ward offer further batting depth and are waiting to explode when needed.
On the bowling front, R Fackrell was the game-changer with exceptional figures of 4/12 in 4 overs. J Woolston (1/14) and H Garton (0/12) supported with tight bowling spells, while C Cooper kept things in control. The balance between their top-order firepower and disciplined bowling makes Yorkshire one of the more balanced teams in the tournament so far.
With momentum on their side, a win here could propel them to the top of the group standings.
Leicestershire Women Preview
Leicestershire Women narrowly lost their last game while chasing 124 runs, ending on 115/5. Their batting lineup showed some fight, with F Sweet (37 runs), R Brooker (33 runs), and E Watson (23 runs) forming the core of the run chase. However, the rest of the batters fell short, highlighting inconsistency in the middle and lower order.
Their bowling unit was impressive as they restricted the opposition to 123/8. F Sweet once again contributed with the ball, taking 3 wickets. She was well-supported by E Thatcher and E Philips, who claimed 2 wickets each. L Crofts and A Herathge provided control through the middle overs.
Leicestershire need more consistency from their batters to complement the quality their bowling attack has shown. A strong performance against Yorkshire could turn their campaign around.
