Welsh Fire vs Southern Brave The Hundred Match Prediction
Match: WEF vs SOB Match Prediction
Time: 22 Aug, 11:00 PM (IST)
Series: The Hundred Match
Venue: Sophia Gardens – Cardiff, England
Info:
Ben Duckett is Welsh Fire’s highest run scorer in the tournament and he is our tip for their top run scorer in this game. Jake Ball took 4-29 against Manchester Originals and was unfortunate to be on the losing side. He is our pick for Welsh Fire’s top wicket taker against Southern Brave.
Captain James Vince has a top score of 71 not out in the competition and we are backing him to be Southern Brave’s highest run scorer on Monday evening. With the ball, Michael Hogan has four wickets across the campaign and he is a strong choice for Southern Brave’s top wicket taker against Welsh Fire.
Both teams have impressive opening batters but we recommend Southern Brave to have the highest opening partnership.

It will be very humid by the end of the game with the level reaching as high as 85-90%. We do not expect any rain to interrupt this match.
🏟️ Pitch:
This pitch has showed signs of speeding up as the tournament has progressed but still tends to offer more for the spinners than the pace bowlers.
Toss Prediction:
Although there can be a temptation to throw caution to the wind when at the bottom of the table, we expect both skippers to choose to bowl first in this match.

Team News:
WEF Team News:
Australian leg-spinner Adam Zampa has returned home ahead of their white ball tour of Zimbabwe and will be replaced by New Zealand’s Ish Sodhi in the Welsh Fire squad. However, Sodhi will not be available for this game and we expect all-rounder Ryan Higgins to come into the team instead.
SOB Team News:
Australian batting all-rounder Marcus Stoinis has played his last game for Southern Brave this season after returning to Australia to prepare for international fixtures. Quinton de Kock has been in poor form for South Africa and Southern Brave over recent weeks but looked to be finding his touch against Manchester Originals.

Winning Chances:
Who will win today’s match: WEF vs SOB The Hundred Match Fantasy Team
These two sides are propping up the table in the Men’s Hundred and both will be desperately hoping that a victory in this game can give them the boost required to go on a winning run. Southern Brave have struggled since losing Chris Jordan and Tymal Mills but we expect them to still be able to beat Welsh Fire in this game.
Final Verdict
Southern Brave are favourites to beat Welsh Fire
WEF Key Players:
Ben Duckett:
the left-handed middle order batter has been the best of a bad bunch for Welsh Fire in The Hundred this season. He impressed for England Lions a fortnight ago but is yet to make a half-century in this campaign.
Dwaine Pretorius:
the South African big hitting all-rounder was Welsh Fire’s highest run scorer against Manchester Originals in the last game. He hit 29 runs from 14 balls.
Jake Ball:
the England international would have won far more than his 24 caps across Tests, ODIs and IT20s if if hadn’t been for a string of injuries. He is a fine white ball bowler at domestic level.
SOB Key Players:
James Vince:
the Southern Brave skipper has struggled to replicate the 229 runs he hit last year but is still their main source of reliable runs.
George Garton:
the bowling all-rounder has been on the fringes of the England side for a couple of years and some good performances in this tournament could see him make the T20 World Cup. He top scored in the last game.
Michael Hogan:
the tall and experienced Australian pace bowler had an impressive Vitality Blast for Glamorgan this year and dismissed Jos Buttler against Manchester Originals.
