Match Preview: Southern Vipers v Central Sparks, RHFT
Southern Vipers have named a 14 -player squad to take on Central Sparks at Wormsley in their first home match of 2024
Hampshire will be seeking their second win of the 2015 LV= County Championship campaign when they face Worcestershire at New Road.
Jimmy Adams’ side suffered a nine-wicket defeat in their last fixture against Middlesex and they will be hoping that a more positive result against a strong Worcestershire side this Monday will see them climb from their current ninth place position.
Hampshire Squad:
Hampshire make just one change to the 13-man squad that faced Middlesex with Liam Dawson’s move to Essex making him unavailable.
The Opposition:
Worcestershire have had a tough LV= County Championship campaign so far this season, with Daryl Mitchell's side currently sitting just one place above Hampshire in eighth place.
A late fourth-day collapse in their last fixture against Nottinghamshire, meant the hosts were unable to avoid defeat and leaving them having won one game from the nine played so far in their 2015 campaign.
Worcestershire will be without star man and England all-rounder Moeen Ali for the fixture after he was included in the 13-man squad for next week's Ashes series opener.
