Both Birmingham Phoenix and Southern Brave had a difficult start in the ongoing Women’s Hundred 2024. After losing back-to-back games against Oval Invincibles and London Spirit, Birmingham managed to pick up their first victory in the match against Trent Rockets. With just one win in three matches, the Ellyse Perry-led is in a tough spot but a win over Southern Brave on August 3 can take them to a better place on the points table.
Brave, on the other hand, lost their first match in the tournament and pulled off a tie in their second game against Northern Superchargers. The Georgia Adams-led performed well as a batting unit in the third game against Originals with the bowlers being impressive too but they ended up on the wrong side of the finish line. To qualify for the next round, they cannot afford to drop any more points but it won’t be an easy task.
