Southern Vipers name a 14-player squad for their final group match against The Blaze at the Haslegrave Ground, Loughborough
The Blaze v Southern Vipers
Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy
Saturday 16th September (10:30am start)
Haslegrave Ground, Loughborough
Southern Vipers travel up to Loughborough to take on The Blaze in the final round of group fixtures in this year’s Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy.
Georgia Adams’ side secured their second bonus point victory in as many games last time out against South East Stars, where Linsey Smith showcased her all-round abilities, recording her maiden List A fifty along with 3-39 with the ball.
The Blaze suffered defeat to the hands of sixth-placed Sunrisers on Wednesday, with centuries from England U19s captain Grace Scrivens and former Vipers wicketkeeper Ariana Dowse, despite a maiden hundred from Georgie Boyce.
If the Vipers win, they secure a home Eliminator at The Ageas Bowl on Thursday 21st September, whereas a defeat will mean they rely on Sunrisers beating Northern Diamonds without a bonus point.
