After winning their season opener, Trent Rockets Women have suffered two straight defeats – by 1 run against Manchester Originals Women and by 3 runs against Birmingham Phoenix Women.
Both their defeats have been by extremely narrow margins and the Rockets will feel they can still make a strong comeback.
The Rockets will be banking on some runs from their captain, Nat Sciver-Brunt. She is their in-form batter, with 151 runs in 3 innings at a strike rate of 129. In the previous game, Brunt was top-scorer for the team with a well-made 59 off 37 balls.
Unfortunately, the others haven’t stepped up yet. The likes of Bryony Smith, Ashleigh Gardner, and Heather Graham are all quality batters, and we expect at least one of these two to have a good game here.
The bowling unit is led by Graham and Alana King, who took 6 and 3 wickets, respectively. Keep an eye on Kirstie Gordon as well. She has had 12 wickets in her last 10 games with an economy of 6.96.

Welsh Fire Women are coming off a convincing win against London Spirit Women where they chased down a target of 151 with 5 balls to spare and 6 wickets in hand.
The great Hayley Matthews led the chase with a sublime, unbeaten knock of 78 off 46 balls. Matthews is one of the best all-rounders in the world and her coming into form is great news for Welsh Fire.
Sophia Dunkley, however, has been their best batter this season, with 121 runs in 3 innings at an average of 60.50 and a strike rate of 142.35.
Tammy Beaumont hasn’t gotten going yet, but she is a solid performer, and we back her to get some runs in this game.
As for the bowling, Georgia Davis has been the standout, taking 6 wickets in 3 innings at an economy of 8.50.
Jess Jonassen and Freya Davies have provided her valuable and have also been among the wickets.

Trent Bridge offers a great deck for batters. It’s usually flat and the ball comes on nicely to the bat. There is good bounce on the surface, which means seamers can be threatening if they bowl tight lines. Spinners will have to be on the money, or they will get carted.
The forecast for Nottingham promises a clear and breezy day with no rain, setting the stage for an uninterrupted match.

The first match of the 2024 Women’s Hundred at Trent Bridge saw Trent Rockets Women post 139-3 on the board and win by 3 runs. Last season, the highest score at the venue in the competition was Southern Brave Women’s 157-6 against Trent Rockets Women. So, this isn’t likely to be a high-scoring game; a score of around 130-140 will be par.
Four of the last five matches at Trent Bridge in the Women’s Hundred have been won by the team batting first, including the previous game this season. This shows that batting first here is the way to go.
Trent Rockets Women hold a slight advantage over Welsh Fire Women, winning two of their three encounters. However, the Rockets’ fortunes have been largely tied to the batting exploits of their captain, Nat Sciver-Brunt. The team's other batters have failed to provide consistent , which has impacted their results. In contrast, Welsh Fire appear to have a more balanced squad and are riding high after their recent impressive victory. Given these factors, Welsh Fire are expected to come out on top in this match.
Back Welsh Fire Women as the winners of this game.
