Northern Brave Women will square off against Auckland Hearts Women in the seventh match of the Women’s Super Smash 2021 on Friday. The Seddon Park in Hamilton will host this high-octane contest.

Northern Brave are struggling in the competition, losing both their games and reeling at the bottom of the points table. They lost against Otago Sparks in their last outing.

In that clash, the Brave posted 135 runs on the board in their allotted twenty overs. Their bowlers, though, failed to step up as the Sparks romped home with two deliveries to spare.

Auckland Hearts, meanwhile, will be playing their first game of the competition. Their lone triumph in this competition came in 2013-14, while they have reached four other finals. They have a solid squad this year as well. Katie Perkins could play a key role for them, as she has plenty of international experience.
