Team Previews

Hampshire Women Preview

Hampshire Women have been solid in the 2025 season. Their campaign has been powered by Ella McCaughan, who has scored 221 runs and provided the stability Hampshire’s top order needs. Rebecca Tyson continues to impress with the ball, leading the wicket charts for Hampshire with 8 scalps.

Their recent match against Durham saw an unfortunate 1-run DLS loss despite solid contributions from Maia Bouchier and Tyson. However, the team possesses balance across departments—Perry and Kemp bring international flair, while Lauren Bell and Freya Davies lead the pace attack with experience.

With the likes of Georgia Adams and Elyse Perry in the mix, Hampshire appear better suited to control crunch moments and convert them into match-winning scenarios. Their strength lies in their bowling versatility and top-order consistency.

Essex Women Preview

Essex Women’s campaign has been patchy. They sit at 6th place, and their reliance on a few key players is beginning to show cracks. Lauren Winfield-Hill, their top run-scorer, has been effective but lacks consistent support from the rest of the top order. Esmae MacGregor, with 11 wickets, has been their lone warrior in the bowling department.

Their last outing against The Blaze exposed their batting collapse, being bowled out for just 104. Even though Joanne Gardner offered resistance, the inability of the top order to contribute cost them the match.

Essex Women will need significant improvements from their middle order and must find a way to support their in-form bowlers. Captain Grace Scrivens must lead with the bat to stabilize innings. On paper, Essex are underdogs, but a disciplined performance could tilt things.

Probable Playing XI

Hampshire Women:
Georgia Adams (C), Maia Bouchier, Ella McCaughan, Elyse Perry, Nancy Harman, Linsey Smith, Rhianna Southby (WK), Rebecca Tyson, Lauren Bell, Freya Kemp, Freya Davies

Essex Women:
Grace Scrivens (C), Lauren Winfield-Hill, Jo Gardner, Maddie Blinkhorn-Jones, Eva Gray, Ariana Dowse (WK), Kate Coppack, Esmae MacGregor, Sophia Smale, Kelly Castle, Abta Maqsood

Favourite Team in Today’s Match

Hampshire Women hold the edge in this fixture due to their better depth, recent form, and a more balanced playing XI. With big names like Elyse Perry and Georgia Adams bringing composure, and young talents like Ella McCaughan and Rebecca Tyson delivering consistently, they have the tools to overpower Essex.

While Essex rely heavily on MacGregor and Winfield-Hill, their inability to bat deep and handle pressure in tough chases could haunt them again. Hampshire’s ability to adapt to different match situations and bowl tightly in the death makes them the likely winners.
