VIEWS FROM THE DRESSING ROOM
Ahead of the match Head Coach, Trevor Griffin said: “It’s always an exciting and tough game against the Vipers and we’ve had some good matches over the years.
“As always, we’ll focus on what we need to do, go out there and be the best that we can possibly be.
“It’s been a good start for us but I don’t think that we’ve played as well as we can yet. I think the performance against Lancashire Thunder showed the depth that we’ve got in the squad and I was really impressed with Fran and Sophie.”
