A double header T20 cricket match featuring the Hampshire Hawks Women against The Blaze at the Utilita Bowl.
Hampshire Hawks Women take on The Blaze at the Utilita Bowl on Wednesday 8 July, part of a double header that afternoon. It's T20 cricket, so it's the shorter, faster version of the game—each side gets 20 overs, and it's usually over in a few hours rather than stretching across a whole day.
The match sits within the Vitality Blast, Hampshire's main T20 competition. The Hawks are the most successful domestic T20 team in history, and they're hosting seven Blast fixtures this summer, so this is one of several chances to catch them on home soil. The double header format means you get two matches for the price of one, with the women's game as the main feature here.
The venue is the Utilita Bowl on Botley Road in West End, and it's well-known among cricket fans for having some of the best views and food in the game. If you're coming from further afield, there's the Hilton Southampton - Utilita Bowl right there, and you can book pitch-facing rooms if you want to wake up looking out over the ground.
