NOS vs BPH Dream11 Prediction: Venue and Pitch Report
Leeds has historically been a high-scoring venue in the white-ball cricket. The average first innings score in the four games here in The Hundred last season was 159.5, with the teams breaching the 150-run mark on as many as four occasions.
Even in the recently-concluded T20 Blast, the average first innings score was 194. The teams batting first won 5 of the seven games in the competition. The pacers took 77.02% of the total wickets. With the overcast conditions expected, there will be some movement available for the new ball bowlers early on.
Weather Report
The rain might affect another game in The Hundred, as showers are predicted throughout the day.
NOS vs BPH Dream11 Prediction: Probable Playing XIs
Northern Superchargers: Tom Banton, Adam Lyth, Matthew Short, Adam Hose, David Wiese, Bas de Leede, Wayne Parnell, Brydon Carse, Adil Rashid, Matthew Potts, Reece Topley.
Birmingham Phoenix: Miles Hammond, Will Smeed, Liam Livingstone, Shadab Khan, Jamie Smith, Benny Howell, Dan Mousley, Henry Brookes, Tom Helm, Kane Richardson, Adam Milne
NOS vs BPH Dream11 Prediction: Top Captaincy Picks
Liam Livingstone: Liam Livingstone always thrives in shorter formats, and a good outing can not be ruled out. He provides value with both bat and ball, making him an ideal candidate for the captaincy.
Shadab Khan: Shadab Khan is another all-rounder who can fetch points with both bat and ball. Shadab has improved a lot as a batter in recent times, and his bowling expertise in the T20s is not unknown.
Adam Lyth: Adam Lyth is a consistent run-scorer in the tournament and will look to extend his good run. Lyth opens the innings and can exploit the powerplay restrictions to get off to a rapid start. Less than 2% of people have made him the captain as of now.
NOS vs BPH Dream11 Prediction: Top Differential Picks
Adam Hose: Adam Hose has been picked up by less than 11% of users as of now, which makes him an ideal differential pick. In the last season, Hose accumulated 53 runs off 35 balls, including four boundaries and two maximums. Overall, he has been a good performer and can again cause serious damage with the willow.
Kane Richardson: Kane Richardson has surprisingly not been a popular pick by fantasy users. Richardson was a consistent wicket-taker, as pointed out earlier. Northern Superchargers are expected to be RHB-heavy, which increases Richardson’s overall value.
NOS vs BPH Dream11 Prediction: Players to Avoid
Henry Brookes: Henry Brookes often conceded too many runs and went wicketless several times in the last season. Even in the T20 Blast this year, Brookes had an economy rate of 9.62 with the ball. He can be left out of the team.
NOS vs BPH Dream11 Prediction: Mega League Base Team
If NOS bat first:
Complete the team with Adam Hose, Benny Howell and Reece Topley.

NOS vs BPH Dream11 Prediction: Small League Base Team
If NOS bat first:
Complete the team with Bas de Leede, Adam Milne and Adil Rashid.
If BPH bat first:
Complete the team with Will Smeed, Matthew Short and Wayne Parnell.
NOS vs BPH Dream11 Prediction:
Both teams have depth in the squad, which makes it an even contest. However, Birmingham Phoenix are slightly more favourites, given they have more utility players who can contribute in all the departments. Expect Birmingham Phoenix to win the rubber.
