Welsh Fire vs Southern Brave, 22nd Match Preview: Pitch Report, Live Streaming, Predicted Playing XI
Welsh Fire (WEF) will be facing Southern Brave (SOB) in the 22nd match of The Hundred Men 2022 tournament at Sophia Gardens in Cardiff on Monday. Both teams have lost four games and are placed at the bottom two spots in the league table. Welsh fire are yet to open its account, while Southern Brave have managed to earn a solitary win. Both teams would desperately want to register a win and we can expect the clash to be a cracker of a game.
Welsh Fire
Welsh fire‘s batting unit has not fired in unison resulting in consecutive losses. In their last match, Jake Ball’s four-for restricted Originals to 149. But the batters stumbled on just 102 runs with Dwaine Pretorius being the highest run-getter, scoring 29 runs. The Josh Cobb-led side needs to put on an improved batting show if they need to get their first win of the tournament.
