The Hundred 2024, WEF-W vs LNS-W: Team Previews

Welsh Fire Women

Welsh Fire secured five wins against just two defeats in the league stage to directly qualify for the Women’s The Hundred 2024 final. In one of the games, they also defeated London Spirit by six wickets and with five balls to spare at the same London-based venue.

Notably, none of Welsh Fire batters feature among the top 10 run-scorers of the season, thus signifying the collective efforts put up by the entire batting department behind their table-topping success. West Indies all-rounder Hayley Matthews has accounted for the most runs for Welsh Fire by amassing 176 of them in just seven innings. Among the bowlers, left-arm spinner Jess Jonassen has emerged as their leading wicket-taker with 12 wickets from seven matches. Matthews has also snapped 11 wickets and will start out as one of the key members from Welsh Fire.

London Spirit Women

London Spirit Women finished third on the Women’s The Hundred 2024 points table with four wins and a tie from eight matches. They recently defeated Oval Invincibles in the Eliminator with a huge eight-wicket margin to qualify for the finals.

Captain Heather Knight has led her team’s batting department from the front, tallying 247 runs from just nine innings to remain the second highest run-scorer of the season. Overseas all-rounder Deepti Sharma has also unfurled handy runs with the bat, and is holding an astonishing season average of 196. London Spirit’s bowling department has primarily revolved around leg-spinner Sarah Glenn, who has picked up 11 wickets this tournament.
