BPH-W vs WEF-W Match Preview

Birmingham Phoenix will play their final home game of the season against Welsh Fire Women at Edgbaston. Ellyse Perry and co. have fallen in their last two games at home and are desperate for a victory here. The visitors, too, are having trouble finding rhythm and looking for their first win of The Hundred 2025. Welsh Fire took 7 wickets in their last match against Southern Brave Women, defending 111 runs. The bowling effort, led by Jess Jonassen, who took four wickets, will boost their confidence moving forward. However, the visiting team will struggle due to a lack of runs from key batters Hayley Matthews and captain Tammy Beaumont in the top three.
