Squads:
Southern Brave – Smriti Mandhana, Danni Wyatt, Chloe Tryon, Lauren Bell, Maia Bouchier, Freya Kemp, Naomi Dattani, Georgia Adams, Lauren Cheatle, Kalea Moore, Tilly Corteen-Coleman, Rhianna Southby, Mary Taylor, Sophie Luff, Katie Jones

Players to watch out:
Georgia Adams
The 30-year-old all-rounder, in The Hundred, has added 438 runs to the tally from 28 outings and taken 30 wickets from 24 innings. Georgia hasn’t had much success this season in The Hundred, especially with the bat, but has managed starts of 17 and 27 in her recent outings. It is hoped she will capitalize on these starts while being among the wickets and delivering the goods with both bat and ball.
Tilly Corteen-Coleman
The 16-year-old left-arm off-spinner was a standout in a recent Twenty20 (T20) competition, picking up 16 wickets from 11 outings and maintaining an economy rate of 5.15. Tilly carried this outstanding form into The Hundred and, in this debut season, has returned figures of 2/22, 1/21, 2/19, and 0/29 in her recent outings. She can be banked upon for breakthroughs, leading the tally.
Tammy Beaumont
The 35-year-old keeper-batter, from 26 appearances in The Hundred, has posted 651 runs on the board at a strike rate of 123.76, with the highest score of 118. Tammy has been among the runs this season; however, in The Hundred, she has managed only two notable scores of 31 and 34, while departing for 4, 6, 0, and 9. She should be backed to produce a big knock, building on her scores.
Jess Jonassen
The 31-year-old all-rounder has had an outstanding first stint in The Hundred thus far, following a successful T20 season earlier this year, continuing to make her case for a return to the Australian national setup. In The Hundred, she has registered scores of 9*, 32*, 14, 26, 13*, and 28, all more than handy scores, alongside claiming 9 wickets. She can be counted on for these efforts.
