Match Preview: Southern Vipers v Yorkshire Diamonds - Kia Super League
Southern Vipers will look to build on their qualification for Finals Day when they host Yorkshire Diamonds at Arundel Castle on Saturday afternoon
Southern Vipers will look to build on their qualification for the Kia Super League Finals Day in the last group game when they host Yorkshire Diamonds at Arundel Castle on Saturday afternoon.
Southern Vipers Squad:
Southern Vipers have named an unchanged 15-player squad for the game at Arundel Castle. Charlie Dean will be hoping to get another chance after making her debut against Lancashire Thunder on Wednesday, whilst Danni Wyatt will look to continue her form with the bat after hitting 46* in the six-wicket win at Liverpool Cricket Club.
The Opposition:
Yorkshire Diamonds are currently third in the Kia Super League, and have a good chance of qualifying for Finals Day. Lauren Winfield’s side can qualify with victory in West Sussex, but if they suffer defeat, then the Diamonds will have to hope winless Lancashire Thunder beat Western Storm at Bristol. Yorkshire Diamonds have World Cup winners Winfield, Katherine Brunt and Jenny Gunn in their squad, as well as overseas stars Chamari Atapattu, Sophie Devine and Sune Luus so are a dangerous outfit.
Did You Know?
Southern Vipers spinner Linsey Smith recorded career-best figures of 4-10 against Yorkshire Diamonds in August 2016 – she has taken 12 wickets in her Vipers’ career.
Suzie Bates and Arran Brindle both hit 45* as Southern Vipers eased to a 54-run victory at the The Ageas Bowl last season.
This will be the first Kia Super League to be played at Arundel.

Charlotte Edwards (23) Captain
