London Spirit will take on Welsh Fire [X]

On Thursday, London Spirit will lock horns with Welsh Fire in the tenth group-stage match of The Hundred 2024. The high-octane clash is scheduled at the home of cricket, Lord's, London. 

LNS vs WEF: Team Previews

London Spirit

Led by Dan Lawrence, London Spirit have had a forgettable campaign in the competition, losing two consecutive matches. After Southern Brave swatted them aside by seven wickets, the Spirit were handed a three-wicket defeat by Birmingham Phoenix. 

Batting failure has been one of the key reasons behind London's terrible performance this season. 

Zak Crawley's finger injury is a massive setback for London, as their top-order batters, Daniel Bell-Drummond, Adam Rossington and Michael-Kyle Pepper, have let them down. 

So, skipper Lawrence is expected to play a crucial role alongside Shimron Hetmyer, Andre Russell and Liam Dawson, while the bowling responsibilities lie on Olly Stone, Nathan Ellis and Daniel Worrall.

Welsh Fire

Welsh lost to Oval in the last game [X]

On the other hand, Welsh Fire have blown hot and cold in The Hundred 2024, occupying the third position in the points table with one win in two outings. 

After crushing Manchester Originals by eight wickets, Welsh Fire received a ten-run drubbing from the defending champions, Oval Invincibles. 

As their name suggests, the Fire have a ruthless top-order, comprising Jonny Bairstow, Joe Clarke and Tom Kohler-Cadmore. Glenn Phillips will be their key player in the middle order alongside skipper Tom Abell, with David Willey playing as the first-choice allrounder. 

Welsh Fire heavily rely on Jake Ball for their bowling success, while the left-arm seam duo of David Payne and Joshua Little can also be a threat to the Spirit's top-order.
