Will Jacks is a strong hitter with aggressive strokeplay and the ability to alter the course of the match in a few overs with his explosive approach. Additionally, he leads his team in runs scored thus far, so the opposition needs a strong player to stop him.

Jacks will be up against Trent Boult’s accuracy and swing bowling. While Boult would aim to capture early wickets and dominate with the ball, Jacks’ would want to throw him off his rhythm with his intent.

Liam Livingstone vs Rashid Khan

Liam Livingstone is an important member of the Birmingham Phoenix because of his inventiveness. He can be the trump card because of his aggressive style, which puts pressure on bowlers in the middle overs.

It is difficult to score off of Rashid Khan’s exceptional leg-spin and variations. Rashid often outsmarts batters with his crafty spin and Livingstone will need to pay close attention to his adjustments. There will be thrilling tactical moments in this contest.

Sam Curran vs Ben Duckett

With consistent batting and potent bowling, Sam Curran‘s all-around abilities provide much-needed balance. He has taken five wickets in two games and will be crucial against the rival openers because of his ability to swing the ball early.

Speaking of openers, Curran’s speed and swing will put Ben Duckett’s calm style and aggression to the test. To neutralise Curran’s danger, Duckett must be patient.
