Hundred Ball Men’s

Match 12: TR vs NOS

Preview

Trent Rockets will square off against Southern Brave in the 12th match of the Hundred Ball Men’s 2023. The game will be hosted at Trent Bridge, Nottingham, United Kingdom on Wednesday, 09th August. TR shared the points with BP in the last game after poor weather prevented play. NOS come into this game with a massive win and will look to continue with the same form. NOS is currently in first place with 1 win out of two matches whereas TR stands 3rd in the points table of The Hundred Ball Men's 2023 Competition.

TR and NOS have played two games in the past, and the Rockets have emerged victorious on both occasions. Lewis Gregory-led TR plays at its home ground and will look to use this advantage. Wayne Parnell-led NOS showed great form in the last game and would like to break their poor record against the Rockets. TR and NOS have matchwinners, and we expect a good contest here.

It was a rain washout for Lewis Gregory's franchise TR in the last game against BT. The Rockets had made a good start to the season, defeating SB in their first game. They play at home, and Lewis's side would like his players to use the conditions to their advantage. NOS come here with a big win, and the skipper would like to see a clinical effort from his playing XI.

NOS skipper Wayne Parnell’s side demolished the SB in the last game, winning by 60 runs. NOS's top order looked in excellent form as the side put up 201 runs on the board and never allowed the Braves to put pressure on them. It will be a tougher challenge against the Rockets, and Parnell would like his side to continue with the same momentum in this 12th match of the tournament.

Match Details

Match: TR vs NOS, 12th Match, The Hundred Ball Men's 2023

Date: Wednesday, August 9, 2023

Time: 07:30 PM

Venue: Trent Bridge, Nottingham, United Kingdom

Pitch Report

This ground is considered a big circle, and batting isn’t going to be easy on this track. Both sides' batters must spend time on the crease and accumulate runs at this venue. The seam bowlers get the ball to move here in the early overs, and batting against the new ball is tough. Spinners have enjoyed success at this venue as the ball can turn sharply here for this 12th match between TR and NOS.

Bowlers who pitch the ball in the right areas will be rewarded on this wicket at Trent Bridge. The side batting first would need 160+ runs on the board to feel safe for this match. The skies over Nottingham would be overcast and the heavy skies would make the batting conditions challenging.

Match Prediction

NOS come into this game with a massive win in their last fixture. NOS's top order is in good form and needs to deliver a similar performance to win this game. Their record against the Rockets has been poor, and the side will look to amend that. The Rockets have an excellent record at home. But we say NOS to win this match.
