WRSW vs SPI Match Preview
The Warriors Women finished at the top of the table after the league stage with three wins out of five games played in the 2023 Fairbreak Global Invitational Women's T20 competition. However, they lost their last league game against the Barmy Army Women after Kathryn Bryce's impressive bowling performance restricting the Barmy Army Women to 163/6 but the Warriors Women faltered in their chase, eventually being bowled out for 146. The Warriors Women will look to bounce back from their defeat and put up a good show in the upcoming first semi-final, where they will be a tough team to beat.
On the other hand, the Spirit Women finished fourth in the league stage, winning three out of five games and losing the remaining two. They lost their last league game to the Falcons Women despite Kerry-Anne Tomlinson's knock of 65. Their bowling unit managed to claim only one wicket, and the Falcons Women chased down the target comfortably in just 14.2 overs. The Spirit Women will need to improve their game and stay alert while facing the Warriors Women in the semi-final clash.
Weather Report
Kowloon is expected to have temperatures between 22 and 28 degrees Celsius on Saturday, with rain predicted throughout the day. The chances of rain also mean that DLS method could come into picture and the captain winning the toss is expected to field first.
Pitch Report
The surface at the Kowloon Cricket Club is a balanced track that offers some lateral movement to the new-ball bowlers. Batters will need to be patient in the early stages of their innings, but once they get set in the middle, run-scoring becomes easier. A perfect sporting surface - anything over 160 could be difficult to chase.
