The Hundred 2022: SB-W vs TRT-W Match Preview, Key Players, Cricket Exchange Fantasy Tips

Trent Rockets players Alana King and Elyse Villani

The Southern Brave Women will take on Trent Rockets in an all-important eliminator at Rose Bowl on Friday, September 2. The winner of the match will face the Oval Invincibles Women in the final the following day at Lord’s.

The Southern Brave Women finished their group stage campaign with five wins out of six games. They held a slightly inferior net run-rate to table-toppers Invincibles. Their overseas stars, especially Indian batter Smriti Mandhana and Australian enigma machine Amanda-Jade Wellington have been their standout performers so far.

On the other hand, Trent Rockets barely made the knockouts with three wins and three losses out of their six group matches. The Birmingham Phoenix and Northern Superchargers also managed three wins each but faced eliminations due to Rockets’ higher net run-rate.

Key Players

• Smriti Mandhana has piled up 178 runs this season with an average of 35.60. She has scored her runs at a rapid pace too, maintaining a strike-rate of 166.35.
• Amanda-Jade Wellington is topping the charts of leading bowlers of the Hundred Women’s 2022 competition with 14 wickets.
• Elyse Villani has been Trent Rockets’ leading batter this year, having plundered 158 runs in six games at an average of 31.60.
