Manchester Originals Women: Deandra Dottin, Emma Lamb, Laura Wolvaardt, Ami Campbell, Kathryn Bryce, Sophie Ecclestone (c), Eleanor Threlkeld (wk), Amanda Jade Wellington, Katie George, Mahika Gaur, Fi Morris
Birmingham Phoenix Women: Sophie Devine, Amy Jones (wk), Erin Burns, Eve Jones (c), Tess Flintoff, Sterre Kalis, Davina Perrin, Issy Wong, Hannah Baker, Emily Arlott, Katie Levick.
Sophie Devine: Sophie Devine is arguably one of the best all-rounders going around in this format. She had a terrific start to the tournament against Northern Superchargers in BPH-W’s season opener. She will be one of the safest captaincy choices ahead of this game.
Sophie Ecclestone: Sophie Ecclestone likes to play against the BPH-W. In two games against them, Ecclestone has five wickets, including three in the last game between these two. She will be another safe captaincy choice ahead of this game.
Laura Wolvaardt: Wolvaardt was last year’s best batter in the competition. The South African batter bats in the top order and makes an impact with the bat more often than not. She will always start any game in the tournament as one of the best captaincy choices.
Emily Arlott: Emily is undoubtedly the best differential pick you can have in your XI. She has been selected by only 10% of the teams as of writing this. Considering her past records and especially against MNR-W at Old Trafford make it worth taking a risk.
Abtaha Maqsood: Abtaha Maqsood will be worth taking a risk in this game. The Scottish has not been selected by most of the teams as of writing this and can be a huge difference maker in your XI.
Abigail Freeborn: The keeper batter doesn’t contribute with the ball and additionally bats way down the order for BPH-W. She neither will keep wickets in presence of Amy Jones. Therefore, it is advisable to avoid picking Freeborn in any of your XI ahead of this game.
