Southern Brave Women have also enjoyed a strong campaign in The Hundred Women’s Competition 2026. They have won five of their seven matches and currently sit second in the standings with 20 points.
Their campaign began brilliantly, with three consecutive victories against Welsh Fire, Sunrisers Leeds and MI London.

However, their momentum has been interrupted by two consecutive defeats.
Southern Brave lost to Welsh Fire by four wickets before suffering a 27-run defeat against Manchester Super Giants Women.

She has scored 197 runs in the tournament and will be crucial against the Trent Rockets bowling attack.
Maia Bouchier has also made a valuable contribution with 147 runs.
The team will need both players to provide a strong start against Trent Rockets.
Southern Brave’s bowling attack remains one of their biggest strengths.

Sophia Dunkley, Nat Sciver-Brunt and Beth Mooney have all demonstrated excellent form.
Southern Brave need early wickets if they want to prevent Trent Rockets from establishing control.
Their batting also needs to improve.

Laura Wolvaardt and Maia Bouchier need to build a substantial partnership.
If they can score quickly during the opening phase, Southern Brave will have a stronger chance of setting a competitive total.
The team also has valuable experience through Sophie Molineux, Sarah Glenn and Lauren Bell.
Despite the recent defeats, Southern Brave remain one of the strongest teams in the competition.
They are second in the standings and have already shown they can beat top-quality opposition.
Their historical edge over Trent Rockets adds another interesting dimension to the contest.

Pitch Report – Trent Bridge, Nottingham
Trent Bridge generally provides an entertaining surface for limited-overs cricket, with batters able to score quickly when they time the ball well. The ground can also offer movement to seamers, particularly during the early stages. The Hundred format rewards aggressive batting, so the powerplay phase will be important. Bowlers may need to use variations during the middle and final stages to restrict scoring. Spinners can become effective when they vary their pace and trajectory. Given the quality of both batting lineups, a competitive first-innings score should be around 125-140, although a strong batting side could push beyond that range.
