Team Previews
Jersey Women Preview
Jersey Women head into this game full of confidence after a thumping 49-run win over Isle of Man Women. The standout performer was Analise Merritt, who not only gave her team a flying start with the bat (24 off 18) but also dismantled the opposition with 4 key wickets. Merritt’s form has been crucial to Jersey’s campaign, as she has already amassed 123 runs and scalped multiple wickets.
Jersey’s top-order has been stable, with Trinity Smith playing a pivotal middle-order role. Her 44-run knock in the last match added firepower and showed depth in Jersey’s lineup. The bowling unit led by Grace Wetherall, who has taken 5 wickets, is working cohesively. Spin and discipline in the field have been the key.
Currently placed third on the table with 1 win from 3 games, Jersey Women look well-placed to register another victory and move closer to qualification, especially against a struggling Swedish side.
Sweden Women Preview
Sweden Women’s tournament has been a mixed bag with only one win in three matches, placing them at the bottom of the table. In their last outing against Germany Women, they were outclassed by 39 runs. Chasing 138, they crumbled to 99, unable to build any solid partnerships.
Eman Asim has been the backbone of the batting unit, scoring 121 runs so far. However, the over-reliance on her has been evident, with the rest of the batting failing to deliver under pressure. Zara Mohammad, the top wicket-taker for Sweden with 5 scalps, continues to be a bright spot with the ball.
The lack of middle-order stability and power-hitters is costing them momentum in games. Sweden needs a collective team effort, especially from experienced names like Gunjan Shukla and Kanchan Rana, if they want to challenge Jersey Women’s better-rounded side.

Favourite Team Today (Why)
Jersey Women are the clear favorites in today’s clash, based on overall team form, recent momentum, and standout individual performances. Analise Merritt is arguably the player of the tournament so far for Jersey, contributing heavily in both departments. The team showed excellent cohesion in their last game against Isle of Man Women, particularly with their disciplined bowling and stable batting lineup. Sweden Women, on the other hand, are heavily reliant on a few players like Eman Asim and Zara Mohammad, and their middle order has consistently underperformed. Jersey’s bowling attack, especially with Grace Wetherall and Merritt, gives them a clear advantage on a pitch that favors turn. Given the disparity in team depth and current form, Jersey Women are rightly expected to dominate the contest.
