ML-W vs TRT-W Dream11 Prediction & Dream11 Team Today: Match Preview, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI & Pitch Report - The Hundred Women's 2026, Match 25
Match Preview
MI London finally have something to smile about heading into Match 25 against Trent Rockets at The Oval. After a winless start to the season, they got off the mark in dramatic fashion two days ago, beating London Spirit in a low-scoring thriller where Amelia Kerr single-handedly scored 69 of MI London’s 122, then came back with the ball to remove Marizanne Kapp at the crucial moment. It’s the kind of win that can shift momentum, but Trent Rockets arrive as a completely different proposition. They’ve won four straight after an opening-day defeat and are one of the form sides in the competition, built around Sophia Dunkley’s brilliant season at the top of the order, 259 runs at an average past 51, and Ashleigh Gardner’s all-round control with the ball. Nat Sciver-Brunt adds further class to an already strong batting lineup. MI London will need Kerr to repeat her heroics, and Hayley Matthews remains a genuine two-way threat for them too, but stopping this Rockets side in its current mood is a tall order. The Oval tends to favour batters who settle in, so a strong start with the bat could matter a lot here.

Kennington Oval — Pitch Report
The Oval is generally a good venue for batting, with true bounce, decent pace, and a quick outfield, though the fast bowlers can still find some swing and seam movement with the new ball. As the innings goes on, spinners and slower-ball bowlers tend to become more effective, especially if the surface is on the drier side. Scores at this ground in the Women’s Hundred this season have ranged all the way from 107 to 151, so there’s a fair bit of variation depending on conditions. A competitive first-innings total sits around 135-145 runs, with anything past 150 considered a strong score. Teams can lean toward chasing on a fresh surface, but batting first becomes the better option if the pitch looks dry and is expected to slow down.

ML-W vs TRT-W Toss Prediction
Bat first.
The Oval’s scores this season have varied quite a bit, but on a surface that’s expected to slow down as the game wears on, setting a total and putting the chasing side under pressure looks like the sounder option here. With Trent Rockets’ top order in such good touch, batting first could also help take some of the sting out of facing them with the ball still hard and the outfield quick.
ML-W vs TRT-W Today Match Prediction
Prediction: Trent Rockets to Win — 64%
This ML-W vs TRT-W today match prediction favours Trent Rockets, mostly down to the gulf in form between the two sides right now. They’ve won four straight, Sophia Dunkley is batting beautifully at the top, and Ashleigh Gardner gives them genuine control with the ball. MI London have shown they can compete, and their recent win over London Spirit proves they’re capable of raising their level when it matters, with Amelia Kerr the obvious key to any upset. But taking down a Rockets side playing with this much confidence is a big ask, and Trent Rockets go in as the clear favourites.
