The Southern Brave secured their fourth consecutive win in The Hundred, defeating the Birmingham Phoenix by 24 runs to maintain their unbeaten record. In a matchup between the top and bottom teams, the Brave emerged victorious, while the Phoenix remains winless and at the bottom of the standings. After restricting the Brave to 141 runs, the Phoenix reached 50 runs in 37 balls with Tammy Beaumont and Davina Perrin performing well. However, after the strategic timeout, the Phoenix's chase stalled, and they ultimately fell short by 24 runs.
The Brave's Lizelle Lee was instrumental in the powerplay, scoring 43 runs off 23 balls, including two sixes, while Maia Bouchier added 45 runs off 31 balls. The Phoenix's Ellyse Perry hit two long-handled boundaries, but it was not enough to secure a win. The Brave's bowlers, including Sophie Molineux and Tilly Courteen-Coleman, exerted pressure on the Phoenix, making it difficult for them to score.
Lizelle Lee praised the Brave's bowlers, stating that they deserve more credit for their performances and that the team is gelling well together.
