Sophia Gardens, Cardiff Pitch Report

The surface of Sophia Gardens in Cardiff is expected to be a little two-paced and hence batting later may get tricky later on as the game progresses. A score around 155 could be a winning total batting first on this wicket. As we expect wickets to fall across both innings, the par score should be no higher than 165.

Probable Top Performers

Probable Best Batter of the Match

Dan Lawrence - London Spirit

The London Spirit captain will be looking to lead his team from the front with his batting performance as he has already played a few good knocks in the tournament. With the pitch expected to be difficult for batting, Lawrence's pure batting technique could be a vital factor in putting up a decent score on the board. Dan Lawrence has amassed a total of 145 runs in the tournament in four innings with a best score of 93.

Probable Best Bowler of the Match

Nathan Ellis - London Spirit

As the wicket is going to be helpful for bowlers, Nathan Ellis' yorkers and slower ones could be difficult to deal with for the batters. In this edition of The Hundred, Ellis has taken six wickets from six appearances for the London Spirit so far with a decent economy rate.
