The 25th match of the Men's edition of the Hundred will be played between Southern Brave and Trent Rockets on 25th August. 

Both sides are coming off a win and will be looking to continue their winning run with just two more games left in the competition.

While the Rockets are comfortably sitting at first position, things don't look good for the defending champions Brave who have just won two matches and are struggling at seventh position.

Spotlight: Alex Hales

Extremely hard-hitting top-order batter Alex Hales has been in the limelight since his debut. Although he has missed most of the international cricket due to the ban imposed but his performance in white-ball cricket has been top-notch.

The right-hander is wearing the Nottinghamshire jersey in the English county set-up and has been a prolific run-getter in T20 Blast. His 116 not out against Sri Lanka in the T20 World Cup 2014 is still the highest score by an English player in the format.

205 runs in the Hundred have come at an average of around 34 along with the strike rate of 162, considering his form, he is someone to watch out for.

Key Players

• Dawid Malan: The highest run-scorer in the Hundred so far, he has managed 241 runs from 6 innings in this edition.
• Paul Stirling: In the one match he has played this season, the Irish opener smacked 74 against the Welsh Fire, marking his arrival.
• Samit Patel: Claiming eight wickets for his side, Patel can also chip in with the bat, making him the perfect all-rounder any side needs.
