SBW vs TRW Team Previews

Southern Brave Women

The Southern Brave women's team was doing a fantastic job in the competition till they suffered their first defeat on Wednesday. However, they are an extremely powerful unit and you can pretty much expect them to bounce back from it. In the last match they played, Southern Brave did not make any changes to the team as they were gunning for a 6th consecutive victory of the season. They would have achieved a clean sweep had they managed to win the last game as well. Even though they lost the match there were many positives to come out of the match for Brave. Their batting recovered after quickly losing both the openers for zero. We expect the same team to go in this game as well.

One of the key players for Southern Brave is Smriti Mandhana. The opener from India received a 3-ball zero in the game on Wednesday. But she has scored more runs than anyone else during the season for Sothern Brave. Another young player for Southern Brave is the fast bowler, Lauren Bell. She is 2nd only to her teammate Amanda Jade Wellington in terms of the number of wickets in The Hundred for women competition. The Aussie leggy Amanda Jade Wellington took the vital wickets of Heather Graham, Alice Davidson-Richards, and Hollie Armitage in the last game.

Before losing their last match, the Sothern Brave had won five games on the trot in the league stages of the competition. Apart from Lauren Bell and Wellington, the other bowler that is likely to be a significant contributor in the match is Anya Shrubsole. She picked up 3 wickets for 20 runs in the last match. The top batswomen that will support Mandhana in the game are Sophia Dunkley and Danni Wyatt. They will be the top picks for the Brave side. Sophia Dunkley scored 38 runs in the last game from 30 balls.

Trent Rockets Women

The Trent Rockets women's team was successful in beating the bottom-placed teams such as London Spirit and Welsh Fire in the last 2-3 games they played. But Southern Brave will be a different proposition altogether. During the season, the Trent Rockets women's team captain Nat Sciver gave up her captainship. However, she played in the last group game against a lowly opponent Welsh Fire. You can expect her to take part in this game as well but it is doubtful whether she will lead the team. After winning the game against the Nottingham side on Monday by 8 wickets you can expect this side to go into this match unchanged.

The Australian player Elyse Villani was the skipper for the side in their win against the Welsh Fire. She also did a fantastic job with the bat hitting one six and 8 boundaries in her undefeated innings in the match on Monday. Another South African batter who bats at the top of the order is Mignon du Preez. She scored 32 runs in the last match and remained not out. She hit these runs from 20 balls. She could be peaking at the right moment in the competition. Alana King is a leg spinner for the Trent Rockets women's team who picked up the wicket of Katie George in the last match. Against Welsh Fire, she bowled economically giving away just 5 runs from 10 balls at an average. She has been bowling economically throughout the competition in 2022.

Trent Rockets have managed to pick a couple of victories from their last 3 matches. But overall, they have lost 3 out of their last 5 games. As far as batting is concerned the team will be depending on the likes of Elyse Villani, Mignon du Preez, and Nat Sciver to perform with the bat. Sciver has played the biggest innings for Trent Rockets in the competition with a 59-not-out effort. The bowling attack for Trent Rockets women will be managed by Sarah Glenn, Katherine Brunt, and of course Alana King. Glen had the best figures of 2 for 14 in this year's league stage.
