In their previous encounter of the series against Lancashire Thunder, Surrey held their nerve to secure a thrilling 2-run win under the DLS method in Manchester. Electing to bowl first, they skittled Lancashire for a modest 85/6 in an 11‑over contest. Kalea Moore and Tilly Corteen‑Coleman struck early, snapping two key wickets each to stifle the innings in a rain-shortened game. In response, Danni Wyatt‑Hodge’s composed 25 off just 16 balls, anchored Surrey’s chase. The side reached 62/4 in 8 overs, clinching the win by 2 runs via the DLS method.
In their last game at Southampton, Surrey women registered a thrilling win against Hampshire. Chasing 156, they got off to a shaky start, slipping to 35/3 early on. But Danni Wyatt‑Hodge’s powerful 65 off 40 balls steadied the innings. With Paige Scholfield unbeaten on 30 and Alice Davidson-Richards adding 23, Surrey surged to victory on the last ball of the innings, sealing a sensational five-wicket triumph.
Danni Wyatt-Hodge has been the standout performer for Surrey Women and is the leading run scorer of the season with 360 runs in 7 innings. Tash Farrant and Grace Harris have done well in the bowling department with 8 wickets each so far. If Surrey Women maintain their form, they are well placed to seal another vital win in this encounter against Lancashire Thunder.

Lancashire Thunder head into this fixture away at The Oval, aiming to overturn Surrey’s recent dominance. They have posted a 3–3 win-loss record from six matches, earning 12 points and holding a modest +0.066 net run rate, placing them 5th in League One.
Their journey has been mixed—highlighted by decisive losses and occasional strong batting displays. A major early setback came in their opening game against The Blaze at Old Trafford, where they posted a competitive 169/4, but suffered a 7-wicket loss thanks to a 53* from Georgia Elwiss and 49* by Kathryn Bryce. Lancashire struggled to contain Blaze’s batting as Elwiss and Bryce dismantled the chase, exposing weaknesses in Thunder’s bowling.
Another heavy defeat occurred in Match 9 vs Hampshire, where Thunder were bowled out for just 122/8, and Hampshire replied dominantly with 125/2. Lancashire Thunder have also lost the earlier head-to-head encounter this season against Surrey Women. Batting-wise, Katie Mack and Emma Lamb have been standout performers. On the bowling front, Mahika Gaur and Bex Tyson are key wicket-takers. On their day, Lancashire Thunder’s inconsistency and vulnerability in death overs have cost them dearly. If they straighten out their bowling and batsmen fire early, they have a chance; otherwise, Surrey might prove to be too strong for Lancashire.
Key players: Alana King, Kate Cross, Tara Norris, Eleanor Threlkeld
Emma Lamb Total Runs Over 21.5 1.85
Emma Lamb has scored 37 runs in her two matches this season. She's in good form, which has also led to a national call-up. In her last game against Surrey Women, she made 27 runs off 25 balls. A consistent scorer, we expect her to score over 21 runs in this fixture.
