Manchester Originals Team News & Playing 11
MNR Team News
There can be no claims of tiredness from anyone in the Manchester Originals squad after they only batted for 80 balls on Saturday before the rain ended the match. The players will be very disappointed to not have picked up a win as yet and we expect the same group to be selected in this match.
MNR Key Players
- Jos Buttler- the England ODI and T20I skipper is also the captain of Manchester Originals. He hit five sixes and three fours in Saturday’s innings.
- Phil Salt- the aggressive opener often goes under the radar with his top-order team-mate Jos Buttler taking the limelight. However, he hit three sixes in his 9-ball innings on Saturday.
- Josh Little- the left-arm quick bowler is an attacking bowler across all formats. He gets swing and does not change how he bowls even if he concedes runs.
MNR Team Form
Manchester Originals have played in one shortened game and another which ended as a no-result. They have no win yet but have impressed with the bat.

Birmingham Phoenix Team News & Playing 11
BPH Team News
It has been a very frustrating start for the players and the supporters of Birmingham Phoenix so far in the The Hundred 2023 with the rain dominating. As expected before the last rained-off clash, Moeen Ali should be back to captain the team in this game.
BPH Key Players
- Ben Duckett- the left-hander is getting plenty of attention after impressing during the Men’s Ashes with his approach of looking to get bat on ball as much as possible. He is a fine white ball batter.
- Shadab Khan- the Pakistan all-rounder may struggle to get much turn from this pitch after the recent rain but he is still a match-winning batter.
- Benny Howell- the right-arm medium fast bowler captained the team in the opening game and has built up a wealth of experience playing in T20 leagues across the globe over recent years.
BPH Team Form
Birmingham Phoenix looked good with the bat in the only innings they have played in so far in the tournament.
Birmingham Phoenix Predicted Playing 11
Will Smeed, Jacob Bethell, Ben Duckett, Jamie Smith (wk), Moeen Ali (c), Shadab Khan, Chris Benjamin, Benny Howell, Adam Milne, Tom Helm, Kane Richardson
