Edgbaston Pitch Report
There have been no matches played at the venue so far in the women’s competition this season as the earlier game between Phoenix and Trent Rockets got washed out without a ball being bowled. In the three matches played at the venue in the previous season, two have been won by teams batting first.
The average first innings score was 130 while the highest target chased was 117. However, the pitch this year is expected to be a belter to bat on and the captain winning the toss is likely to bowl first keeping up with the trend of the season so far.
