Manchester Super Giants vs Birmingham Phoenix prediction
Rain threatens to play spoiler between Manchester Super Giants and Birmingham Phoenix with both teams currently on two points after winning their first match. Whilst the Super Giants went to Lord’s and got the better of London Spirit, Birmingham Phoenix took down Trent Rockets in a high-scoring belter at Edgbaston. It’s huge for the Phoenix that their top order have started the competition so well.
You’d expect at Old Trafford more of a bowler friendly surface with grey conditions and potential rain on the horizon. Usman Tariq’s spin could well come in handy with this ground always have been a good one for spinners, so backing the overseas bowler to register another two wickets at least may be a move worth making.
