Spotlight: Moeen Ali
Moeen Ali in Birmingham Phoenix colours
The man who is leading from the front. An experienced veteran in white-ball cricket and a phenomenal all-rounder.
In the last match, the skipper was declared the 'Player of the Match' after a magnificent 52 off 27 balls against the Trent Rockets. One of the over looking like a bowler's nightmare - 4, 6, 4, 4, WD and a dropped catch.
One of the key players for the Phoenix in the last edition of the tournament, Ali has continued his run as one of the best performing players.
Driving the team to the finals in the last season, the team will once again look towards the skipper to be a guiding light.

Pitch Report: A fair surface, offering equal opportunities to batters and bowlers. The top has a decent bounce and the ball comes onto the field pretty nicely. Pacers can take advantage of the movement early on
