Birmingham Phoenix Women host Sunrisers Leeds Women at Edgbaston in the 24th match of The Hundred Women’s 2026, an afternoon fixture on Friday 7 August.
Phoenix are led by Ellyse Perry. Davina Perrin, Tammy Beaumont, Alice Capsey and Emma Lamb provide the batting, with Annerie Dercksen and wicketkeeper Jemima Spence further down. Fatima Sana, Alana King, Linsey Smith and Lauren Filer form a varied bowling unit.
Sunrisers Leeds Women are captained by Danielle Gibson, with Lauren Winfield-Hill as wicketkeeper. Bryony Smith, Phoebe Litchfield, Annabel Sutherland, Jess Jonassen and Deepti Sharma give them real quality across the order, while Kate Cross, Cassidy McCarthy and Hannah Baker lead the attack.
Edgbaston should offer early assistance to seamers and then a good surface for stroke-play, with spinners relevant in the middle overs. Partnerships and acceleration in the closing overs will be key, and winning the powerplay with the new ball could be decisive. Our preview expects first-innings scores of 135–150, and gives Sunrisers Leeds Women a narrow advantage.
