The Hundred Women’s 2026: Predictions, Odds & This Week’s Fixtures
London Spirit Women look a shade more likely to come out on top against Sunrisers Leeds Women at Headingley, according to William Hill News. The market reflects an even contest, but our read leans slightly towards the Spirit’s bowling attack to swing it.
With both sides priced at 10/11, this feels like one of the tightest games of The Hundred Women’s schedule so far.
Prediction
With the odds dead level at 10/11 each‑of‑two, this feels like a classic toss‑up.
The slightly deeper bowling resources and Kapp’s form tilt the balance marginally towards London Spirit Women, particularly if they win the toss and can either set a target around 150 or squeeze Sunrisers in a chase.
Prediction: London Spirit Women to win a tight contest, with first‑innings scores likely in the 130–145 range and Kapp a strong contender for Player of the Match.
Ground and scoring trends
Headingley has produced middling scores in the women’s competition so far, with average first‑innings totals around 126 and chasing sides typically falling just short of that at roughly 119.
That suggests anything in the 130–140 range will be very competitive, especially if conditions stay dry and the pitch offers the spinners some grip as the game wears on.
Sunrisers Leeds’ last outing here saw them fall five runs short chasing 139, underlining how costly a slow start can be on this ground. Expect both teams to target a platform of around 40–45 off the first 30 balls before their middle‑order hitters look to go through the gears.
Sunrisers Leeds Women Form
Sunrisers Leeds sit seventh with one win and three defeats, and their season so far has followed a familiar pattern: solid bowling efforts followed by chases that leave a little too much to do late on.
Hannah Baker leads their attack with five wickets, while Annabel Sutherland has been the standout all‑rounder, topping the run charts with 146 runs and nearly dragging them over the line with an unbeaten 59 off 30 in their narrow loss to Trent Rockets Women.
The issue has been tempo at the top. Bryony Smith, Jess Jonassen and Phoebe Litchfield all took time to get going in that chase, which ultimately left Sutherland trying to make up too many runs in the closing sets.
If the Sunrisers are to justify their 10/11 quote, they need one of Smith or Jonassen to set the tone early and free Sutherland to play with more freedom, rather than repair work.
London Spirit Women Form
London Spirit Women come in fourth with one win, two defeats and one no‑result. Nadine de Klerk has been their most reliable batter with 102 runs, while Marizanne Kapp has been superb with the ball, taking nine wickets and regularly striking in the powerplay.
Their main concern is batting depth. In the defeat to Southern Brave Women they mustered only 114 for 8 from 100 balls, with Grace Harris, Amy Jones and Marie Kelly all falling cheaply.
Kapp’s 34 hinted at more to come, but she fell just as acceleration was required and the lower order couldn’t lift the total.
Even so, their bowling attack kept them in the game until Maia Bouchier and Sophie Molineux steered Brave home with five wickets in hand.
Looking ahead, attention will quickly switch to Trent Rockets Women vs Birmingham Phoenix Women on Wednesday, where Rockets’ power batting and Phoenix’s all‑round balance promise another compelling mid‑week fixture in The Hundred Women’s calendar.
