Head Coach Marc Broom has named a 13-player squad for Friday's Vitality Blast League Two clash against Glamorgan Women at Sophia Gardens.
Middlesex return to action following a week off and make the trip to Cardiff looking to continue their positive start to the Vitality Blast campaign. Glamorgan will provide another competitive challenge as both sides look to build momentum during the league stage.
The visitors will be aiming to pick up another important victory on the road after using the break to reset ahead of a busy run of fixtures. With valuable points on offer, Middlesex will be looking to produce another strong all-round performance against a Glamorgan side on home soil.
There are several options at the top of the order, with Artemis Downer and Scarlett Hughes likely to provide an attacking start. Hughes is also set to take the gloves, while captain Saskia Horley will once again be expected to play a key role in the all-rounder line-up alongside Riva Pindoria.
Pippa Sproul returns to the squad following her involvement with Scotland at the ICC Women's T20 World Cup, providing further quality and experience within the batting unit.
With the ball, Middlesex possess a varied attack capable of adapting to T20 conditions. A combination of seam and spin bowlers gives the visitors a number of wicket-taking options as they look to contain the Glamorgan batting line-up and make early inroads.
Friday's fixture marks the beginning of an important run of Vitality Blast League Two matches for Middlesex. Having benefited from a week to recharge, the visitors will be eager to return to action and build further momentum as the competition enters a crucial stage.
