Team Previews
The Blaze Women Preview
The Blaze Women are currently holding 4th place with one win and one loss. They showcased a strong performance in their last match against Durham Women, successfully chasing 200 with 5 wickets in hand. The team’s batting has shown resilience with Kathryn Bryce anchoring the innings with her consistent form — including a match-winning 54 in the last outing.
Bowling has looked sharp with Sarah Glenn leading the wicket tally with 4 scalps. Their top-order, including Tammy Beaumont and Amy Jones, has been steady, while their all-round depth with players like Nat Sciver-Brunt and Georgia Elwiss gives them flexibility. With a strong batting and bowling combination, they appear one of the most balanced units in the tournament.
Warwickshire Women Preview
Warwickshire Women are in the 2nd position with one win and one tie to their name. Their previous match against Hampshire Women ended in a dramatic tie. Despite good knocks by Abigail Freeborn (70) and Sterre Kallis (18), a middle-order collapse cost them a certain win.
The bowling unit, however, has been top-notch, especially Chloe Brewer who has taken 6 wickets in the tournament so far. Emily Arlott has been the surprise package, scoring 132 runs and offering stability in the middle order. However, the inconsistency of the batting order under pressure remains a concern, and they’ll need better support for their in-form players.
