Welsh Fire Women (WEF-W) will contend with Southern Brave Women (SOB-W) in Match 21 of The Hundred Women’s 2025 at Sophia Gardens in Cardiff on Wednesday, August 20. Fire are currently struggling at the bottom of the points table with four straight defeats, and Tammy Beaumont’s side is yet to find its best cricket. They will be desperate to register their first win of the season in this home fixture.

On the other hand, Southern Brave have enjoyed a dream run so far, leading the table with 20 points. Georgia Adams’ team is riding on a five-match winning streak and will look to continue their dominant form with yet another strong performance against a struggling Fire side.

WEF-W vs SOB-W: Pitch Report

The pitch at Sophia Gardens offers some swing and seam movement early on, allowing pace bowlers to strike with the new ball. Batters will need to start carefully; however, once they are set, they will be able to score freely due to a very nice carry on the pitch. Teams chasing generally have an advantage here due to dew making it easier to bat and letting teams manage scoreboard pressure.
