The Northern Superchargers Women will play against the Manchester Originals Women in the 18th match of the Women’s Hundred 2023 competition at Headingley in Leeds on Sunday (August 13). The Northern Superchargers are having a great show so far in the competition. They have won three games out of four and have six points in their name as well. They beat the Oval Invincibles Women in their last game and they will look to keep performing in a similar way in the upcoming games. Batting first, the Superchargers Women posted 143 on the back of Phoebe Litchfield (68) and skipper Hollie Armitage (42). The bowlers then did well to restrict the Invincibles Women to 129/5 to win the game by 14 runs as well.
The Manchester Originals Women, on the other hand, have four points to their name after they managed to win only two points in their first two games due to washouts as well. They beat the Birmingham Phoenix in their third game before losing to the Oval Invincibles Women in their next game as well. The bowlers did a great job of restricting the Invincibles Women to 128/7 as well. Deandra Dottin top-scored with 42 but the other batters failed to contribute as they finished their innings on 123/9 to eventually lose the game by five runs as well.
