Here are some of the best bets for this Trent Rockets vs Southern Brave match.
Jofra Archer has been bowling with great rhythm and has done well in the ongoing season. He has taken 2 for 16 and 2 for 15 in two games. Back him to pick up at least one wicket in this game.
Southern Brave have a stronger side on paper, with better balance. They have a potent bowling attack of Jofra Archer, Craig Overton, Michael Bracewell, and Tymal Mills. Their batting unit looks better than Trent Rockets.
Tom Banton has been in magnificent form in the tournament. He has smashed 43, 37, and 46 in three innings so far and has struck at 148. With that form on his side, you can back him to score at least 20 runs.
Trent Bridge, Nottingham has been one of the best venues in England when it comes to batting. Flat pitches and shorter boundaries make bowlers’ job much harder. The average first innings score at the venue in The Hundred reads 141 since last year.
