Southern Brave will be back at The Rose Bowl as they face the Trent Rockets in their 3rd home game of the season. The batting graph has taken a dip for the Brave in the last few outings.
Trent Rockets, on the other hand, improved their batting returns in their last game after suffering two consecutive losses. This return to form led them to a 22-run win as they successfully defended 166 runs against the London Spirit.
Brave have been unbeaten on this ground so far with two consecutive wins. They will be looking for a comeback with the bat as they face a strong bowling attack in this match.
Rashid Khan has picked 6 wickets for Trent Rockets in his last 3 appearances. Luke Wood and Imad Wasim have also been quite consistent with their bowling performances for the Rockets and will be key players to watch out for.

Southern Brave have witnessed a downward graph in their batting performances recently. They batted first in their last 3 consecutive matches and won two of them.
Batting first at Edgbaston, skipper James Vince played an unbeaten 90-run knock to lead his side to 169 for 2. He continued his brilliant form in the next game scoring an unbeaten 73 off 50 balls as Southern Brave posted a 139-run total in Cardiff.
It was in this match that Vince did not find from the middle-order batters. Leus du Plooy and Kieron Pollard failed to convert their starts while Laurie Evans couldn’t even get going.
Vince scored his 3rd consecutive fifty while the rest of the batting lineup folded cheaply as they finished with 118 runs in their last match at the Kennington Oval. They desperately need some brave performances in this match.
Vince may or may not score another fifty to lead the side to a competitive total. They cannot continue to rely on him every single time. Alex Davies, Andre Fletcher, and Luke Evans also need to step up and deliver in the top-order.
Kieron Pollard hasn’t been in his best touch and his role is crucial in the lower middle order as a finisher. The bowling attack is quite promising with Jofra Archer, Chris Jordan, and Tymal Mills in the pace attack.

Trent Rockets will be backing themselves to get the upper hand in this contest as their batters are back in form and the bowlers will be facing a struggling lineup of Southern Brave.
Rashid Khan will be the key bowler for the Rockets. They’ve also got Luke Wood and Imad Wasim who’ve been the match-winners in recent outings. Rockets will pose a tough challenge to the hosts with the ball.
Tom Banton and Alex Hales are the openers for the Rockets. It is a great opening combination and though none of them have scored a big knock lately, they’ve been consistently making an impact.
One of them stays around and builds a partnership with the number 3 batter for the second wicket. However, they changed this opening combination last match bringing in Adam Lyth and sending Hales to number 3.
Joe Root and Rovman Powell add plenty of strength and experience to the middle-order followed by Rashid Khan, a pinch-hitter who can swing the game at any point in time. All-rounder and captain Lewis Gregory comes in late in the lower order.
There is plenty of strength in the top 5 of this batting lineup and it should be enough to post a big score.

Though there will be no rain on the match day in Southampton, the skies will be mostly cloudy throughout the day with a high of 22 degrees Celsius. The new-ball bowlers could find some help in this weather and get the ball to move through the air in the early overs.

It is a balanced wicket at The Rose Bowl in Southampton where both batters and bowlers will find some help off the surface. It has been a pretty high-scoring venue in T20s. The average 1st innings score in the last 4 matches of The Hundred at this venue is 135 runs. We reckon the team batting first would be in a match-winning position if they could cross the 135-run mark.
All 4 games this season in The Hundred including men’s and women’s competitions went in favor of the team bowling first. Southern Brave chased down 139 runs against London Spirit at this venue earlier this season. Whereas, the London Spirit Women chased down 152 against the Brave Women.
It looks like Trent Rockets are back in form and look threatening after their recent performance. However, Southern Brave have a good record at home and can turn things around with the bat. It will be a close contest with no clear advantage in favor of either side. Southern Brave, with their overall squad strength, and home record, find a slight edge in our match prediction and will start as favorites to win.
