The star South African batter, Q de Kock(The Hundred 2021- 8 Matches:202 runs,avg:36,Strike rate:172) missed the opening match due to national duties but now he is available for the selection against Birmingham and is expected to replace A Davies. Matthew Wade was ruled out of the last game due to food poisoning. He is expected to come in for Dan Mousley in this game.
The in-form all-rounder, Moeen Ali was excellent against Trent Rockets in the last match with both bat and ball. He scored 35 runs off just 21 balls and then took David Malan’s big wicket to put all-around display.
Liam Livingstone, the star batter smashed the highest 47 runs off 28 balls against Trent Rockets in the opening match and also took a wicket. He will be a very good captaincy choice in this match.
Birmingham Phoenix won 3 out of their last 5 matches while Southern Brave won all matches in their 5 previous outings.
