Birmingham Phoenix are favorites to win
Trent Rockets and Birmingham Phoenix get their 2022 Men’s Hundred campaigns underway at Trent Bridge, Nottingham on Saturday afternoon. The Rockets came third in the group stage before being knocked out by eventual champions Southern Brave in the Eliminator last year. Phoenix went all the way to the final before losing by 32 runs. Read on as we preview this game. The match gets underway at 14:30 local time.
Trent Rockets finished in the top three last year and look set for another competitive tournament this time. They have a group of strong domestic players flanked by some international stars and will be dangerous in this match.
Birmingham Phoenix produced some of the most memorable moments of the 2022 competition and have retained many of their top players. They will be very hard to stop in this game.
TV channels: This match will be shown live on Sky Cricket.
The Hundred 2022 Live Streaming: Fans can stream the match on SkyGo and the FanCode App.
Three of the four games at Trent Bridge last year saw the toss winning captain choose to bat first. We predict that both skippers will decide to bat first if they win the toss ahead of this match.
Trent Bridge has been a batter’s paradise for many years with records broken here in T20 Blast and ODI fixtures. Expect plenty of pace and bounce on this wicket.
Partly cloudy with the temperature in the early 20s throughout this match. There is no threat of rain at any stage.

Under new management, with Andy Flower having replaced Stephen Fleming, we expect to see Trent Rockets build on their top three finish from the 2021 season. There is certainly more depth to their batting than to their bowling, but Rashid Khan and Marchant de Lange are both very talented white ball bowlers.
Although the Rockets ended the 2021 group stage with a win over Manchester Originals, they lost three of their final four matches in the tournament.

The pace bowling attack stocks at Birmingham Phoenix have been tested by injuries to Chris Woakes, Olly Stone and Matthew Fisher. All three are unavailable for the The Hundred 2022 but the side still has a formidable bowling unit. There are no injury worries ahead of this match.
Phoenix lost two of their first three games last year but recovered to top the group with a six game winning streak. Although they lost the final, they had a formula which worked in this format.
Matthew Wade (wk), Will Smeed, Liam Livingstone, Chris Benjamin, Moeen Ali (c), Tom Abell, Dan Mousley, Imran Tahir, Kane Richardson, Benny Howell, Adam Milne
Birmingham Phoenix bring a 100% record over Trent Rockets into this fixture. They won by six wickets at Edgbaston and 16 runs at Trent Bridge during the 2021 tournament.

Birmingham Phoenix are very narrow favourites to get the win in this match. The bookies think the game is almost too close to call.
There are very few players struggling for form in the XIs of both sides and we expect both camps to be full of confidence coming into this game. Although the Phoenix are favourites, the Rockets also have an excellent chance of getting the win.
Alex Hales, Dawid Malan and Joe Root are our batting recommendations for Trent Rockets. Malan scored 214 runs in the tournament last year.
We are backing Liam Livingstone, Will Smeed and Matthew Wade as our batting picks for Birmingham Phoenix. Smeed is considered to be one of England’s bright prospects in all formats and averaged 40 over six innings in the PSL earlier this year.
We expect Rashid Khan, Luke Fletcher and Marchant de Lange to be the top bowlers for Trent Rockets. de Lange produced the first five-wicket haul in the history of The Hundred against Southern Brave at Trent Bridge.
Adam Milne, Imran Tahir and Kane Richardson are our tips with the ball for Birmingham Phoenix. Tahir registered the first hat-trick in the competition last year
The Rockets and the Phoenix were two of the strongest sides in the competition in 2021 and there is very little reason to doubt that they will not both be up there challenging again this year. We should be in for another entertaining and high-scoring match at Trent Bridge and we are predicting Birmingham Phoenix to come out on top.
