Originals secured a brilliant win against Welsh Fire

Manchester Originals and Southern Brave will cross swords against each other in the 18th game of the ongoing Men's Hundred competition in Southampton tomorrow at 11.30 PM IST. 

Both teams have had an exactly opposite kind of journey in the tournament. While Manchester registered their first victory last night after three consecutive losses, the Brave have suffered three crushing defeats after winning their opening encounter. 

So, Manchester would like to sustain their momentum, whereas the defending champions would be desperate to get back on the winning track. 

Spotlight: Philip Salt

Hailed as one of England's most promising talents, Philip Salt had a horrendous start to his Hundred 2022 campaign, managing just one run in the first game. 

Salt has been in scintillating touch

However, the promising keeper-batter has found his mojo back in time and hammered 144 runs at a tremendous strike rate of 141.17 in the subsequent three matches. In the last game against Welsh Fire, Salt provided the ideal start to his side by scoring a quick-fire 22-ball 38. Considering his red hot form, we believe the dynamic right-hander will exhibit his hitting prowess again tomorrow.    

Key Players

• Jos Buttler has been the second highest run-getter for Manchester this season, with 135 runs at a healthy strike rate of 143.61. 
• James Vince has top-scored for the Brave in the tournament, garnering 103 runs at a magnificent strike rate of 149.27. 
• Sean Abbott starred with the ball for Manchester last night, scalping three wickets for just eight runs.

Pitch Report: The iconic Rose Bowl has been equally productive for both batters and bowlers this season. The deck doesn't really change its behaviour with time, which is why it will be safer for the toss-winner to field first.
