WEF-W vs BPH-W Dream11 Match Preview

Welsh Fire Women will host the Birmingham Phoenix in Match 4 of the Hundred Women 2022. 

Welsh Fire will have a new captain in Tammy Beaumont. Hayley Matthews and Rachael Haynes are top overseas names in their squad. Annabel Sutherland and Nicola Carey are other two overseas names which will boost their bowling this season. The Fire finished last in the points table last season and also lost to the Phoenix in their visit to Edgbaston. They will be looking to have a much better season and start their campaign with a win against a strong Birmingham Phoenix. 

On the other side, Birmingham Phoenix had a much better season comparatively. They finished third in the points table and failed to go through to the final due to defeat against the Invincibles in the eliminator. They have a very strong squad on paper. Amy Jones and Evelyn Jones are definitely going to be their strength as the local stars. Sophie Devine, Ellyse Perry and Deepti Sharma addition as all-rounders are only going to make things easier for the Phoenix. After missing out on a Final berth, the Birmingham based franchise will be hoping to go one step further this season and start their season with a win over the Welsh Fire.

WEF-W vs BPH-W Venue and Pitch Report 

Sophia Gardens was a low scoring ground in the last season of The Hundred. The average first innings score was around 110. Batting first has not been easy at this ground but there has been a change of events this season. Therefore we might see a much more balanced pitch for the batters and can see teams scoring more than the last year’s average score.
