Southern Brave vs Welsh Fire Predictions

The Brave can secure a place in the Eliminator with a win over the Fire, but a big win could see them bounce straight into the final. If they lose to the Fire they might miss out on the Eliminator, but the Fire’s form is poor, having lost three and won just one of their last five games in The Hundred.

Southern Brave’s James Vince tops the runs list (338 runs) and has the second-best average (67.60) in The Hundred.
Southern Brave’s Kieron Pollard hit five sixes in his 23-ball innings off 45 against the Rockets.
Welsh Fire’s Tom Kohler-Cadmore scored 54 off 32 balls against the Phoenix.
Welsh Fire’s Stephen Eskinazi has scored 23, 40, 23 & 30 in his last 5 innings.

Head-to-Head

The Brave have won the last five matches between the two sides in The Hundred, including the Group match earlier this season.

Southern Brave Form

The Brave have won four of their last five matches, bouncing back from a defeat against the Invincibles to win their last match against the Rockets with one ball to spare.

Chris Jordan (3/22) was on fire as the Brave restricted the Rockets to 126/8 off their 100 balls.

After a first innings stand of 43 off 29 balls, the Brave collapsed to 68/5 before Kieron Pollard (45 off 23 balls) saved the Brave’s blushes by keeping them in the chase. Needing four from the last two balls, Chris Jordan flicked a short ball over deep fine leg for the winning boundary with one ball to spare.

Southern Brave Team News

Southern Brave are in good form and are unlikely to make any changes to their team.

Welsh Fire Form

After beating the Rockets, the Fire lost to the Brave by 42 runs, had their match against the Superchargers rained out and then lost to the Phoenix by five wickets with three balls to spare.

The Fire did well to post 146/8 off their 100 balls, with Tom Kohler-Cadmore top-scoring with 54 off 32 balls.

A superb opening stand by the Phoenix took the match away from the Fire to end their outside hopes of hitting the playoffs.

Welsh Fire Team News

The Fire have nothing to play for so they might give some squad players a run in their last match of the season.

Verdict

Southern Brave v Welsh Fire - The Hundred

I am backing the Southern Brave to win. I am also backing James Vince to top score for the Southern Brave.

Tom Kohler-Cadmore is a good bet to top score for the Welsh Fire.
