Trent Rockets will play Birmingham Phoenix in Nottingham on Friday (August 13, 2021). Birmingham will be coming into this game on the back of a scintillating win over Welsh Fire by 93 runs.
The side rode on individual fifties from Will Smeed and Moeen Ali to post 184/5 in 100 balls and later, the bowlers especially Imran Tahir ripped through the batting order to win the match with a comprehensive margin.
Birmingham though will be without the services of Moeen as he has joined the England side for the second Test against India at Lord’s.
On the other hand, Trent Rockets suffered a defeat against Oval Invincibles by 9 runs. The bowlers did give away a lot of runs that pushed them on the back foot.
