Well, this tournament starts on Saturday as eight teams battle it out. I'm intrigued by the names of the teams and particularly by the fact that Lightning play Thunder in the first round of games. One assumes that Lightning will have to bat first as Lightning always comes before Thunder.
As for the other teams, Western Storm are another weather-related team and likely to be more comfortable when rain stops play. Central Sparks sound more like the sort of company you call out having visited checkatrade.com if your fusebox blows up (or something far less serious, in my case). Then, we have South East Stars who presumably prefer to play at night while Sunrisers would prefer a 7 am start with the dew on the ground. This leaves the Northern Diamonds who will aim to sparkle, while Southern Vipers, which is curiously an anagram of inert pushovers, will hope to have some bite.
So, now you know.
