Birmingham Phoenix Team News & Playing 11
BPH Team News
After losing to Manchester Originals by 49 runs at Old Trafford last Monday, Birmingham Phoenix kept faith with the same XI ahead of their defeat to Welsh Fire on Thursday evening. No injuries have been reported but Phoenix may still look to make some changes as they search for their first win.
BPH Key Players
- Liam Livingstone- the all-format England international has not been at his best in the tournament so far but still managed to hit the highest score for Phoenix on Thursday.
- Moeen Ali- the skipper should never be written off, particularly in white ball cricket. He never lets his previous innings or performance affect his next match.
- Benny Howell- the 34 year old bowling all-rounder is the most in-form player in this side. He comes into this game after combined figures of 5-37 over the last two games.
BPH Team Form
Birmingham Phoenix are still looking for their first win in the 2023 Men’s Hundred.
