The 19th match of the Men's Hundred 2022 will see the Northern Superchargers (NOS) take on Birmingham Phoenix (BPH) at Edgbaston in Birmingham on Friday, August 19.
The Northern Superchargers are reeling in the bottom half of the points table with only one win in four matches. Despite boasting an experienced and well-balanced side, the Superchargers have not been able to click as a unit. They are in desperate need of a win, with a lot riding on the shoulders of Faf du Plessis and David Willey.
Birmingham Phoenix, meanwhile, are on a run of three consecutive wins, with the duo of Moeen Ali and Liam Livingstone impressing with the bat. Birmingham Phoenix will start as the favorites, owing to recent form and home conditions. But given the firepower that the Northern Superchargers have in their batting unit, they will fancy their chances of returning to winning ways in this much-awaited clash in Birmingham.

Today's BPH vs NOS Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Matthew Wade: Although Matthew Wade has been used in a middle-order role, he has come up with handy knocks of 14*, 38 and 10 in his three outings in the Hundred. He is an explosive batter who can take on both the pacers and spinners, which is why he is being used in the middle order. Given his experience and recent form, Wade should get the nod in this department ahead of this BPH vs NOS game.
Batter
Faf du Plessis: Faf du Plessis struck some form in the previous game, scoring his first Hundred fifty against the London Spirit. The Northern Superchargers captain is an experienced campaigner who has a knack for scoring big runs at the top of the order. With the South African returning to form, he is one to watch out for in this game.
All-rounder
Moeen Ali: Like his opposing counterpart, Birmingham Pheonix captain Moeen Ali also scored a fifty, albeit in a winning cause. Moeen was brilliant against Trent Rockets spinners, scoring a major chunk of his runs against them. Moeen can also play a role against Northern Superchargers' southpaws David Willey and Adam Lyth, making him a fine option for your BPH vs NOS Dream11 fantasy team.
Bowler
Adil Rashid: Adil Rashid has quietly gone about his work, picking up four wickets in as many games for the Northern Superchargers. Rashid, who is perhaps England's best leg-spinner by a long way, is a genuine wicket-taker despite his economy rate being a touch on the higher side. With the conditions likely to suit Rashid, he is a must-have in your BPH vs NOS Dream11 fantasy team.
