With their commendable performance this season, Welsh Fire Women sit comfortably in the third spot on the points table. Out of six games, they've emerged victorious in four, endured a solitary loss, and had one match ending without a result, accumulating nine points. Their recent showing against Trent Rockets Women was a sheer spectacle, all thanks to Tammy Beaumont's blistering 118 off 61 deliveries.

Her heroics steered the team to a massive 181/3. In the bowling department, Freya Davies led the pack, registering impressive figures of 2/19 from her 20-ball spell, thus restricting the Rockets to 140/5.

On the other hand, London Spirit Women, who are out of the contest for the trophy, will aim to leave a mark in their final appearance this season. Their journey, unfortunately, has been marred with a single win, three defeats, and two games ending in no result, placing them sixth on the points table.

Their previous outing saw them setting a competitive target of 136 for Northern Superchargers, who chased it down in a nail-biting finish with just one ball to spare. Their best players were Amelia Kerr, who showcased her batting prowess by notching up 60 off 32, and Sarah Glenn, who made her presence felt with an economical 3/19 from her 20 balls.
