Two further dates for your diary are for the Eliminator on Friday 14 August at the Kia Oval, with the Final taking place two days later at Lord’s.
The Birmingham Phoenix have made a strong start to building their squad for the 2026 season, with the retentions of Jacob Bethell and Ellyse Perry being complemented by the direct signings of Rehan Ahmed, Donovan Ferriera and Mitch Owen for the men’s side, with Alice Capsey, Lauren Filer and Lucy Hamilton being added to the women’s ranks.
