The 2025 Women’s Hundred came to a dramatic finish at Lord’s, where Northern Superchargers lifted the trophy after overpowering Southern Brave by seven wickets. The much-anticipated final brought together two of the most consistent teams of the tournament, with fans treated to an exciting contest under the lights.
Southern Brave Struggle with the Bat
Southern Brave, opting to bat first, could only muster 115 runs from their 100 balls. Their innings never really gathered momentum as Northern Superchargers’ bowlers kept things tight. Freya Kemp offered some resistance with a gritty 26, but with little support from her teammates, the Brave’s total fell well short of expectations.
Northern Bowlers Shine
Northern Superchargers’ bowlers executed their plans perfectly, not allowing Southern Brave’s batters to settle. With the ball in hand, Kate Cross and Annabel Sutherland were outstanding, picking up two wickets apiece and keeping Southern Brave batters under relentless pressure. Their tight spells ensured the Superchargers entered the chase with confidence.
