WS vs SV Team Previews
Western Storm
The Western Storm has been a bit unlucky of late as 3 of its last 4 matches had to be abandoned due to rain. This includes the reverse fixture between the Vipers and the Storm. As a result, the Storm has been unable to gather points and is languishing at the bottom of the points table. With half the season already behind us, they face an uphill task to qualify for the playoffs.
Alex Griffiths and Emma Corney will look to give the team a strong start here. The former is in good form with the bat as well as the ball, having scored 103 runs and also picking up 7 wickets. Fran Wilson is another consistent performer with the bat and is the top-scorer for the Storm with 160 runs.
However, the other middle-order batters including Sophie Luff and Natasha Wraith have struggled to get going. Coming to the bowling, Chloe Skelton has been the pick of the bowlers with 9 wickets and will lead the spin attack along with Nicole Harvey, while Alex Griffiths and Piepa Cleary will feature in the pace attack.
Western Storm Playing 11
Chloe Skelton, Emma Corney, Katie Jones , Niamh Holland, Nicole Harvey, Phoebe Graham, Sophia Smale, Alex Griffiths, Fran Wilson, Piepa Cleary, Sophie Luff.
Southern Vipers
The Vipers had a decent start to the tournament, winning 2 of its first 3 matches. However, they do seem to have shed some form as they have lost 3 of their last 5 matches and were forced to share points in the remaining 2. They are 5th on the points table and trail the top-3 by 6 points.
They still have 6 matches to go and will be looking to get back to winning ways here.
Georgia Adams has led her team from the front and is the leading run-getter as well as the leading wicket-taker for the team with 206 runs and 8 wickets. She will feature in the middle order along with Rhianna Southby, Emily Windsor, and Georgia Elwiss. Maia Bouchier and Ella McCaughan have done a good job at the top of the order and will look to give the team a strong start here.
Adams will head the spin attack along with Linsey Smith, while the pace battery consists of Georgia Elwiss, Mary Taylor, and Alice Monaghan.

Pitch and Conditions
There is a bit of grass on the surface of the pitch which will provide a good amount of pace for the quicker bowlers. The batters will have to see off the first few overs as there will be some movement. However, the pitch does get easy to bat on as the match progresses. The weather will remain overcast and there is a forecast of rain.
WS vs SV Betting Tips
Both teams have struggled to get the desired results in their latest outings and will be desperate to win. However, looking at the records, we feel that the Southern Vipers have the edge here and we are backing them to come out on top.

Bonus Cricket Bets
Georgia Adams is the leading run-scorer for the Vipers this season. She has an average of 41.20 and has scored 26 or more runs in 2 of her last 3 outings.
Sophie Luff hasn’t been in the best of forms of late and has failed to cross the 28-run mark in each of her last 2 innings. We expect her struggles to continue.
The opening pair of Maia Bouchier and Ella McCaughan has done a good job for the team so far and we expect them to give yet another good start.
