The Northern Superchargers Women (NOS-W) are facing Welsh Fire Women (WEF-W) in The Hundred Women's 2025 season at Headingley, Leeds, on Thursday, August 7. Both teams have their first match of the season, and a winning start will be essential to establishing a positive streak. Last season, NOS-W finished in fourth place and were not consistent in their performances. 

WEF-W, on the other hand, had the best season ever, leading the points table, and confirmed their place in the final without playing a semifinal. Yet, they lost to London Spirit Women in the last four-wicket game, thus becoming runner-ups in the race for the title.

NOS-W vs WEF-W: Pitch Report

Headingley has proven to be challenging for batters in the current edition of the Women's Hundred:

  • Run-scoring has been tough, especially in the first innings.
  • Bowling first has been the preferred option, with the surface improving slightly under lights.
  • A total above 130 runs is considered competitive.
  • Seamers and spinners who hit good lengths have found success here.
  • One can expect the game to be low-to-mid scoring again, but the winning team will be the one with a better strategy and bowling execution.
