BPH vs TRE Probable Winners:

There will be plenty of pressure on Trent Rockets who realistically must win this game to maintain their hopes of a top three finish in the Men's Hundred. However, up against an in-form Birmingham Phoenix, we are not expecting a victory for the visitors at Edgbaston. Our prediction is for Phoenix to come out on top. Considering the team combination, Trent Rockets is expected to win this match.
