On August 27th, 2023, the curtains fell on the third season of The Hundred Women's competition. The showdown saw the Southern Brave face the Northern Superchargers, with Southern Brave emerging victorious.
The Southern Brave batted first and put on a total of 139/6. Danni Wyatt, in incredible form, scored 59 runs. Kate Cross of the Superchargers showcased her prowess with the ball, picking three crucial wickets.
When it was the turn for the Chargers to respond, their batting lineup floundered. Jemimah Rodrigues was the highest run scorer with 24 runs. The remainder of the batters stuttered, with the team managing to put only 105 runs on the scoreboard. This surprising defeat was largely due to the persistent bowling of the Brave's Kalea Moore and Lauren Bell, grabbing three wickets each.

Danni Wyatt surged ahead in the batting charts. With an amazing 295 runs from nine innings, she ended up as the top scorer.
