Trent Rockets will take on London Spirit in the 20th match of The Hundred for men in the 2022 season later today. This game is to be played at the Trent Bridge venue in Nottingham. The Trent Rockets have performed well in the last five matches of the competition. They have won 4 matches and lost just a single game from these five matches.
Rashid Khan will again be available for this game after completing a 5-game T20I series against Ireland for his national Afghanistan side. He will return to the team with his spinning partner Tabraiz Shamsi. Another crucial player for the Rockets is the tall opening batsman Alex Hales. He is back in the minds of selectors for England with the T20 world cup coming up. He has hit a couple of fifties in the competition so far. Dawid Malan is the leading run-getter in The Hundred this year. He is averaging an amazing 80.33 in the competition from five matches. Tabraiz Shamsi is a left-arm wrist spinner. He picked up a couple of vital wickets in the last game of Sam Billings and Jason Roy on Wednesday. He was not doing too well earlier as he could manage just a single wicket before this game. This better performance would have added more confidence to him as goes on in this match. Both the opening batsmen for Trent Rockets are in good nick.
London Spirit has done well in the competition by turning it on its head. They are using the approach of batting first in the competition and it is working out well for them. Northern Superchargers opted to bat first in their game against London. They enjoy the success of different members of the side much in the same vein as Eoin Morgan's English white-ball team did.
A crucial member of the side is Zak Crawley who missed the last match because of doing duties for the British national side. He will not be playing this game either. The wicket-keeper batsman for London Spirit is Adam Rossington. He played a match to remember in his last outing against Northern Superchargers. He inflicted a stumping and scored a fabulous 66 from just 26 balls. In the last match at Headingley, the Australian superstar Glenn Maxwell was in terrific attacking form. He hit one six and six boundaries on his way to a 43 runs effort from 25 balls. All the players are contributing to the success of the team from all positions. Adam Rossington hit a quickfire fifty for London Spirit in their last game. You can expect him to come good again in this match.
PITCH AND CONDITIONS
The weather forecast for this match is that of partly cloudy conditions and humidity reaching 70% level before the game ends. The temperature during the game will remain in the lower 20s and higher 10s during the game. Even though the wicket at the Trent Bridge venue is not a bowl of dust, it is likely to provide some assistance to the spinners
