The eighth match of the Hundred 2022 sees Birmingham Phoenix lock horns with the Southern Brave at Edgbaston in Birmingham.
Birmingham Phoenix didn’t have the best of starts to their Hundred 2022 campaign, suffering a loss to the Trent Rockets in a hard-fought opening game.
The Phoenix’s batters struggled throughout their innings, managing to score only 143 at the end of their quota of 100 balls. The bowlers tried hard but could only pick up four wickets as they failed to defend the total. They will be hoping to bounce back in the next match.
Southern Brave, on the other hand, had a fantastic start to this year’s competition. They defeated Welsh Fire comprehensively in their first game of the Hundred 2022. They will look to repeat their performance against the Phoenix on Wednesday.
Bowling first, the Brave bowlers did a fine job of restricting the Fire to 107. The opening batters of the Brave then stepped up and contributed as they chased down the total in just 70 balls to win the game by nine wickets.
