Pitch Report
Sophia Gardens in Cardiff typically offers a balanced pitch, with early movement for seamers due to the underlying moisture. The surface tends to slow down as the game progresses, bringing spinners into play. Batters can expect good scoring opportunities once they settle in, especially during the middle overs.

Probable Top Performers
Probable Best Batter: Sophia Dunkley
The batter began the season with a stellar unbeaten 69*, but her subsequent performances have seen a steady decline. After the disappointment of a golden duck in her previous outing, she will undoubtedly be eager to stage a formidable comeback.
Probable Best Bowler: Jess Jonassen
The Southpaw has translated her batting form into her bowling, having gone wicketless in only one of the five matches played. Her left-arm spin could prove to be a valuable asset against the Phoenix.
