Jersey Women will face Spain Women in the second match of the Women’s T20 Quadrangular Series in Switzerland 2026 at the Embrach Cricket Ground on Monday, July 27. The match is scheduled to begin at 5:30 PM IST, with both teams looking to make a strong start to their campaign. The tournament also includes Switzerland Women and Brazil Women, making this an important series for all four sides as they look for competitive international cricket and valuable experience.
Jersey Women enter this match with confidence after winning their last two T20Is against Guernsey Women. They have also enjoyed a strong record against Spain, winning both of their previous meetings. Jersey won their latest clash by seven wickets in May 2025 after chasing down 95 in just 11 overs, while their earlier meeting in May 2022 ended in a 67-run victory. Spain will now hope to change that record and produce a much stronger challenge.
Jersey have several experienced players who can make a difference in different situations. Captain Chloe Greechan remains a major all-round option, while Aimee Aikenhead brings experience and attacking ability to the top order. Mia Maguire adds wicketkeeping strength, and players such as Analise Merritt, Florence Tanguy, Olivia Bastin and Trinity Smith give the side useful depth across the bowling and all-round departments.
Spain Women will be hoping for a fresh beginning after a difficult recent run. Their squad includes experienced names such as Elspeth Fowler, Alexis Hartley, Hillman-Bermejo and Amy Brown-Carrera, who can contribute with either bat or ball. Spain will need their key players to handle Jersey’s experienced attack and improve on their previous meetings if they are to compete strongly in this contest.

Players to watch out:

Chloe Greechan is the player Spain will have to watch closely. The Jersey captain has taken 62 wickets in 47 T20Is at an outstanding average of 9.14 and an economy rate of 3.36. Her best figures are 5/4, and she has also taken three four-wicket hauls and one five-wicket haul. Her control with the ball makes her one of Jersey’s biggest strengths.
Aimee Aikenhead
Aimee Aikenhead gives Jersey an experienced batting option at the top. She has scored 632 runs in 34 T20Is at an average of 26.33 and a strike rate of 108.03. With five half-centuries and a highest score of 85, she has the ability to build an innings while also keeping the scoring rate moving.
Elspeth Fowler
Elspeth Fowler will be an important player for Spain as they look to put together a stronger batting effort. She has played 22 T20Is and scored 186 runs, with a highest score of 44. Her experience could be useful in helping Spain build partnerships and handle pressure against Jersey’s bowling attack.
Hillman-Bermejo
Hillman-Bermejo has been one of Spain’s most productive all-rounders. In 18 T20Is, she has scored 384 runs at an impressive average of 64.00 and a strike rate of 95.04. She has also taken 21 wickets, including best figures of 4/10, making her an important player in both departments.
Pitch:
The Embrach Cricket Ground should offer an interesting contest between bat and ball. Fast bowlers could get some early assistance from the new ball, but once batters settle down, the conditions may become more comfortable for scoring. Spinners are likely to focus on accuracy and variation rather than expecting major turn.
Weather:
The weather is expected to be warm, with the temperature reaching around 27°C during the day. There is a possibility of a few brief showers in the late morning, while the afternoon is expected to become partly sunny.
Fantasy Playing XI:
Aimee Aikenhead, Chloe Greechan, Grace Wetherall, Analise Merritt, Mia Maguire, Trinity Smith, Hillman-Bermejo, Elspeth Fowler, Amy Brown-Carrera, Samaia Basharat, Florence Tanguy
