MO vs NS Team Previews

Manchester Originals

Manchester Originals look a touch top-heavy again. Phil Salt’s aggression and leadership are real assets, but when the early fireworks fade, this batting unit can stall badly. Even with Jos Buttler floating in the batting order, they’ve already shown how brittle things get once a big name falls. Buttler scored more than half the team’s runs alone in the Originals’ previous game.

The team was bowled out for 112 against the Welsh Fire. Ben McKinney is talented but raw at this level. The internationals of Mark Chapman and Heinrich Klaasen bring experience, but neither is a natural innings-gluer in a wobble. New Zealander Chapman has only two runs in his past two innings.

The bowling has promise without bankable control. Josh Tongue’s burst of three for 29 to beat London Spirit hints at upside, but that required a defendable total and help at the death that won’t always be there. Tom Hartley and Noor Ahmad give them dual-spin variety.

Relying on a young spin pair to strangle set hitters can backfire on flat nights. Afghan Ahmad only has two Men’s Hundred wickets in five games. Scott Currie and Sonny Baker add pace but are still learning their craft in the Men’s Hundred.

Young Baker has never taken more than two wickets in his Men’s Hundred career.

Manchester Originals Expected Playing 11

Phil Salt (c), Ben McKinney, Jos Buttler (wk), Mark Chapman, Heinrich Klaasen, Lewis Gregory, Tom Hartley, Scott Currie, Noor Ahmad, Josh Tongue, Sonny Baker

Northern Superchargers

Northern Superchargers look quietly stacked and well-balanced. Zak Crawley and Dawid Malan give them a composed, high-class launchpad as the opening pair. Crawley and Malan scored 45 and 58 runs respectively against Birmingham. Michael Pepper’s 360-degree hitting adds early acceleration.

Captain Harry Brook is the X-factor. Few players flip gears as cleanly, and this lineup lets him choose his moment. He rocketed to 31 runs unbeaten off 14 balls in his previous innings. With David Miller lurking, the finish is elite. The South African is the kind of death-overs threat that turns par scores into match-winners.

The all-round glue is strong too. Dan Lawrence’s seam-up and busy batting complement Mitchell Santner’s left-arm spin and ice-cool game management in the middle phases. With the ball, Matthew Potts brings heavy lengths and new-ball nip. Tom Lawes adds bustling pace and handy lower order runs. Jacob Duffy offers skiddy powerplay overs.

There’s still Adil Rashid to come. The Englishman is still a world-class wicket-taking leggie and a proven Hundred star. There were plenty of wickets to go around against the Phoenix with each of Jacob Duffy, Adil Rashid and Tom Lawes taking two wickets. Matthew Potts topped the list with three wickets.

The Superchargers tick the big boxes. The team has a stable top, explosive core, varied pace and elite spin. With Brook steering and Rashid and Santner squeezing in the middle overs, the team will hunt points on the road. The team has the ability to back-up strong batting with a bowling performance to match.

The Manchester Originals scored 163 for six in its last innings at Old Trafford.
