Match Details

Durham Women Preview

Durham’s campaign has been underwhelming, winning only three out of ten matches. Their reliance on a few players has hurt their consistency. Suzie Bates has been their best performer, scoring 336 runs at a strike rate of 122.62, but her efforts have lacked support.

Mady Villiers (205 runs, 7 wickets) and skipper Hollie Armitage (194 runs) have shown glimpses of brilliance but haven’t converted those starts consistently. The rest of the batting order has struggled for rhythm.

On the bowling front, Katie Levick has been the standout performer with 9 wickets, maintaining tight lines. Sophia Turner and Villiers have shared 13 wickets, but their economy rates haven’t helped build pressure.

Predicted Playing XI:
Suzie Bates, Emma Marlow, Mady Villiers, Hollie Armitage (c), Mia Rogers (wk), Katie Levick, Phoebe Turner, Emily Windsor, Grace Thompson, Sophia Turner, Leah Dobson

Hampshire Women Preview

Hampshire Women are still in the playoff race and will look to take advantage of Durham’s poor form. They’ve won five of their eleven games and look stronger after the inclusion of Australian all-rounder Ellyse Perry.

Freya Kemp (242 runs, SR 142.35) has been sensational at the top and is the backbone of the batting unit. Rhianna Southby and captain Georgia Adams offer solid middle-order support.

Ellyse Perry is the x-factor—her ability to score and break partnerships will be vital. The bowling unit looks complete now with Perry joining Freya Davies (13 wickets) and Bex Tyson (12 wickets), who have been consistent wicket-takers. Daisy Gibb and Georgia Adams offer decent backup with spin.

Predicted Playing XI:
Ellyse Perry, Rhianna Southby (wk), Freya Kemp, Georgia Adams (c), Abi Norgrove, Naomi Dattani, Mary Taylor, Megan Sturge, Freya Davies, Daisy Gibb, Bex Tyson
