Manchester Originals vs Southern Brave prediction

Assuming Manchester Originals have Sophie Ecclestone available, then all the pieces are place for them to have a successful season. Their squad boasts some strong domestic talent such as Seren Smale, Kathryn Bryce and Esmae Macgregor. Not to mention overseas superstar Amelia Kerr, who offers world class ability with both bat and ball.

Southern Brave have been one of the more successful women’s Hundred sides, but with Charlotte Edwards no longer their head coach, it would be no surprise to see a drop off this year. Whilst the Brave are top heavy with the bat, down the order there is a question mark and with that in mind, backing Manchester appears the move to make here.
