Probable Best Performers of the Match
Probable Best Batter: Ben Duckett
England opener Ben Duckett could prove to be a key batter in the upcoming clash. He was the second-highest run-scorer in last year’s edition of The Hundred, amassing 269 runs in just seven innings. Coming off a strong run of form in red-ball cricket against India, Duckett remains a dangerous prospect at the top.
Probable Best Bowler: Tim Southee
Former New Zealand skipper Tim Southee could be the key bowler for Birmingham Phoenix in the upcoming clash. He had an impressive outing last season, picking up 14 wickets. He remains a potent threat as he can swing the balls both ways. His 20-ball spell will be crucial in restricting the opposition.
