Salt's Sweet Victory, But What Does it Mean for The Hundred? The Welsh Fire's six wicket win against Southern Brave in their season opener was a resounding statement of intent from captain Phil Salt.
His unbeaten 47 set the tone for what promises to be an intriguing Hundred campaign. Salt's arrival at Welsh Fire was met with skepticism, given the franchise's underwhelming performances in recent seasons.
However, the all time leading scorer in The Hundred has already begun to make his mark on the team. He partnered well with fellow opener Matt Short, laying a solid foundation for the chase.
