Predicted Birmingham Phoenix XI for match 4 of the Hundred Men’s 2025:
Top Order:

Ben Duckett is fresh off a wonderful outing against India. He has 891 runs in the Hundred with a best of 92 and a strike rate of 148.52. Joining him at the top will be Will Smeed, who has slammed 428 runs in the tournament with a best of 101* and a strike rate of 159.78. In his young career, Jacob Bethell has 176 runs in hundreds and more room to grow.
Middle Order:

Liam Livingstone will captain Birmingham Phoenix. He has an impressive 755 runs in the Hundred with a best of 92* at a strike rate of 146.88. Aneurin Donald might keep wickets for Phoenix and will look to make a mark in the Hundred, where he has played only four games. Dan Mousley will have a lot to prove in this season, given his 107 runs in 16 matches across three seasons.
Lower Order:

Tim Southee and Adam Milne will be the lower-order bowlers-cum-hitters. Southee has 17 wickets in the Hundred with a best of 5/12 and an economy of 6.82. Adam Milne, meanwhile, has 34 wickets in the format with a best of 4/20 and an economy of 7.11.
Bowlers:

Another New Zealander, Trent Boult, will lead the Phoenix bowling attack. This will be Boult’s first time in the Hundred, but his 323 T20 wickets and 83 T20I wickets speak of his brilliance. Chris Wood has 15 wickets in the Hundred with a best of 4/28, while Liam Patterson-White will have his first go in the tournament.
