The Hundred Women: NSC vs WF, 3rd Match, Match Prediction– Who will win the Match?

The Hundred goes further North with Leeds gearing up to host a game. There are challenges though with batting looking tough in the Hundred despite the change in ball. Welsh Fire in particular will come in with a few points to prove. Both Steve Smith and Jonny Bairstow have clear intentions and would eagerly be waiting the opportunity to push for a claim as they look to re-enter their national white-ball teams.

NSC vs WF Players to Watch

Jonny Bairstow

Jonny Bairstow has been snubbed from the national teams and with a World Cup coming he will be eagerly looking at this tournament to get back in the reckoning.

Harry Brook

Few days ago Harry Brook played a shot he is likely to regret for a long time. He is in good form though but how that shot and innings plays on him is likely to determine his form both as a player and leader.

NSC vs WF Match Tips

Both teams look good but Welsh Fire could start favorites with some momentum on their side and the return of some star names.
