Southern Brave Women face Birmingham Phoenix Women in the 13th match of The Hundred Women’s Competition 2026 at the Rose Bowl, Southampton, on Thursday 30 July. The game starts at 3:00 pm local time.
Brave are led by Sophie Molineux and have a top order of Maia Bouchier, wicketkeeper Lizelle Lee, Laura Wolvaardt and Jemimah Rodrigues. Jodi Grewcock and Naomi Dattani provide middle-order options, while Sarah Glenn, Issy Wong, Lauren Bell and Tilly Corteen-Coleman make up a varied attack.
Phoenix are captained by Ellyse Perry and feature Tammy Beaumont, Emma Lamb, Davina Perrin and Alice Capsey in the batting, with Fatima Sana and Phoebe Brett as all-rounders. Alana King, Lauren Filer, Linsey Smith and Eva Gray share the bowling duties.
A dry afternoon and a fast outfield suit stroke-makers, but the larger boundaries put a premium on timing and partnerships. Seamers could find early movement, so the powerplay may decide the game. We expect Southern Brave Women to come through.
