THE LOWDOWN
TRENT ROCKETS
Trent Rockets suffered a disappointing defeat at the hands of Manchester Originals last time they played at Trent Bridge and with the Men’s Hundred table so tight, they need two points to get them back into contention here. Their bowlers were dealt some serious tap on Thursday night, particularly Sam Cook and John Turner must be a contender to come back into the side as a result with the Rockets showing that they have the runs required to win games, provided the bowlers can do their jobs more effectively.
BIRMINGHAM PHOENIX
The batting of Birmingham Phoenix, which had been such a strong suit for them over a significant period of time has let them down all tournament long in 2023. It did so again in Southampton on Wednesday as they could only score 119/8 against the Southern Brave. Such a small target was never going to be enough and the inevitable defeat followed, leaving the Phoenix still bottom of the table.
THE PREDICTION
If you can’t put runs on the board, you’re not going to win many matches in a competition such as this. Birmingham Phoenix are clear examples of that and when taking into account how poorly they have done with the bat, it doesn’t bode well for them on a ground such as Trent Bridge. The Rockets will be licking their lips at the prospect of getting stuck into Birmingham’s bowling and with two points vital for their top three hopes, you’d expect them to get the job done.
BETTING TIP: TRENT ROCKETS TO WIN
