Trent Rockets vs Birmingham Phoenix Preview

• In their previous meetings with Trent Rockets, Birmingham Phoenix has triumphed in both contests.
• Rashid Khan’s performance determines the quality of Trent Rockets’ bowling, which is a team weakness.
• With Adam Milne, Tom Helm, and Imran Tahir on the side, Birmingham Phoenix’s bowling attack is diverse.

 

On Saturday in the late afternoon, the 2022 Men’s Hundred campaigns of Trent Rockets and Birmingham Phoenix are launched at Trent Bridge in Nottingham. Before the Southern Brave, the eventual champions, eliminated the Rockets in the Eliminator last year, the Rockets finished third in the group round. Phoenix advanced to the championship game but was defeated by 32 runs. Local time is 14:30 when the game begins.

Last year, Trent Rockets placed in the top three, and this time around, they appear to be in for another tough competition. They will be dangerous in this game because they have a solid collection of homegrown players surrounded by some international stars.

Birmingham Phoenix created some of the 2022 competition’s most memorable moments and kept a lot of their best players. In this game, they will be exceedingly challenging to stop.

With Andy Flower taking over as the team’s new manager in lieu of Stephen Fleming, Trent Rockets are anticipated to improve upon their top-three performance from the 2021 season. Rashid Khan and Marchant de Lange are both excellent white ball bowlers, however, their batting clearly has more depth than their bowling.
