The Birmingham Phoenix are in great form as they prepare to face the Trent Rockets in The Hundred 2024. With back-to-back wins against strong teams like Northern Superchargers and Welsh Fire, Phoenix are on a roll. Their opening pair, Ben Duckett and skipper Moeen Ali, have been crucial in setting the tone for these victories, putting the opposition under early pressure.

On the other hand, the Trent Rockets have struggled recently, losing three of their last four matches. They need a win to stay in the hunt for a top-three spot. The Rockets’ middle order has been a concern, and they will need to step up, especially against Birmingham’s strong pace attack led by Tim Southee, Adam Milne, and Sean Abbott.
