Pitch Report
A good batting track beckons at Edgbaston with little to no help on offer for the pacers. Although they will get some extra bounce early on, the pacers will need to vary their lines and lengths accordingly. Although the spinners should get some turn off the surface, the dimensions of the ground go against them. Both teams will look to chase upon winning the toss, with 160 being a good total at the venue.
Today's BPH vs WEF Dream11 match top picks
Wicket-keeper
Tom Banton: Tom Banton has failed to get going in this tournament despite sparkling with some explosive strokeplay. With The Hundred entering the business end, Banton is due for a big knock for the Welsh Fire today.
Batter
Finn Allen: Like Banton, Finn Allen is yet to strike a chord with consistency in The Hundred. However, the nature of the pitch should favor Allen, who will be key for Birmingham Phoenix in the powerplay phase.
All-rounder
Liam Livingstone: Liam Livingstone has tailed off in recent games, with the likes of Will Smeed and Moeen Ali starring with the bat. However, Livingstone is too good a player to be kept down for long, making him a must-have in your BPH vs WEF Dream11 fantasy team.
Bowler
Qais Ahmad: Qais Ahmad's variety and accuracy has served Welsh Fire well with seven wickets to his name. Although there isn't much turn on offer, Qais's form bodes well for Welsh Fire and should pick up a wicket or two in this game.
