In the 2025 Vitality Blast women's competition, The Blaze ended Surrey's unbeaten streak with a 17-run victory, powered by Georgia Elwiss's 61 and Marie Kelly's 46, as well as key bowling contributions from Cassidy McCarthy and Kirstie Gordon. Surrey's Danni Wyatt-Hodge scored a rapid 60, but the team was bowled out in the last over while chasing 170. Meanwhile, Bears Women secured a seven-wicket win over Durham Women, thanks to Nat Wraith's 56 and despite Mady Villiers' unbeaten 85 for Durham. Essex Women struggled with a poor batting performance, scoring only 104 runs against The Blaze, while Hampshire Women lost narrowly to Durham due to rain-affected play and the DLS method.
