The stage is set for a compelling clash at the iconic Kennington Oval as MI London Women host Manchester Super Giants Women in the 18th match of The Hundred Women’s Competition 2026. MI London, captained by Hollie Armitage, sit near the bottom of the points table following three defeats and a dramatic tied encounter against London Spirit in their previous outing. Despite the squad’s collective struggles, star all-rounder Hayley Matthews has been standard-bearer in form, leading both the run charts and wicket counts for her side.

On the other hand, Meg Lanning’s Manchester Super Giants Women enter this fixture occupying third place in the standings with two victories, eager to bounce back following a recent defeat to Trent Rockets. Manchester’s top order boasts formidable international firepower with Smriti Mandhana and Lanning, complimented by the versatile all-round skills of Kathryn Bryce and the world-class left-arm spin of Sophie Ecclestone. With the Kennington Oval offering a balanced surface, early momentum in the Powerplay will be crucial. MI London urgently need marquee stars like Amelia Kerr and Danni Wyatt-Hodge to deliver in unison to claim their first win, while Manchester will target a clinical performance to consolidate their playoff push.

Captains winning the toss are likely to field first, aiming to restrict the opposition on a fresh pitch.
