England captain on BBC TwoSmriti [Mandhana] is really good against pace and in the last couple of years, we've seen her start to move around the crease as well.
I think Katherine [Brunt] and Nat [Sciver] will come over the wicket and angle the ball across her because that's one of the small weaknesses we've identified for her.
Young stars of The Hundredpublished at 14:49 British Summer Time 2 September 2022
Alice Capsey and Will Smeed burst onto the scene in 2021, and continued to shine a year later.

'The pitch should be an absolute belter'published at 14:45 British Summer Time 2 September 2022
Image source, Getty ImagesSouthern Brave captain Anya Shrubsole: "We were going to have a bowl as well but I'm not that bothered, to be honest. It's a new pitch, I think it's going to be an absolute belter and I'm sure they'll be plenty of runs out there so we've got to get some on the board.
"We're really lucky that the eliminator is at the Ageas, it's a ground we know well, we enjoy and we've got a good record here. Hopefully we can get the job done and get up the road to Lord's.
"We're really happy with the makeup of our XI, we think everyone is clear in their roles and what they have to do."

BBC Sport at the Ageas BowlIt was raining here earlier this morning but it’s lovely now. The players have been out warming up, the crowd is building and there are lots of green Southern Brave shirts around.
The Brave will have wanted to go straight through to the final but organisers won’t mind the fact they’re in this eliminator.
'We're looking to play a really fearless brand of cricket'published at 14:39 British Summer Time 2 September 2022
Trent Rockets captain Elyse Villani: "This is the first toss we've won so that's a great start for our team.
"We're going to bowl because we're just not sure what conditions are out there so we'll get a hold of that as quickly as possible.
"The mood in the camp is good. We had a tense couple of days hoping for results to go our way, which they did. We've played some really great games of cricket but let ourselves down in other areas.
"We're really clear in what we need to do well to be really competitive and give ourselves the best chance of winning today. We're looking to go out there and play a really fearless brand of cricket."
Trent Rockets win the toss and bowl firstpublished at 14:37 British Summer Time 2 September 2022
