The Birmingham Phoenix Women (BPH-W) are set to face the Trent Rockets Women (TRT-W) in The Hundred Women's 2025 Match 4 on Friday, August 8, at Edgbaston, Birmingham. Both teams are on a quest for a comeback this season after they were not able to finish in the top three in the 2024 edition. The Phoenix Women, under the leadership of Ellyse Perry, are looking to turn things around after a disappointing seventh-place finish.

Meanwhile, the Rockets narrowly missed out on a playoff berth last year, ending fifth on the table. Ashleigh Gardner leads the team together with a strong core consisting of Nat Sciver-Brunt and Alana King; they will be aiming for a good start to the new season. Both sides possess a strong combination of international stars, with an abundance of domestic potential, which should make for a very competitive match.

BPH-W vs TRT-W: Pitch Report

• Generally, Edgbaston provides a fast pitch to the batting team. However, it can also offer a delicate advantage to the team that bowls first.
• Chasing sides have often found success here due to dew and slightly easier conditions under lights.
  
• The shorter boundaries provide ample hitting opportunities, especially in the powerplay.
  
• Those bowlers who have variations in the speed of their delivery and also make use of cutters normally do well on this pitch.
  

At this stadium, a result in the region of 135-145 would be considered a solid performance.
