Birmingham Phoenix vs Trent Rockets Team Preview
Birmingham Phoenix
Prior to the cancellation of their game against the Northern Superchargers, the Birmingham Phoenix were well prepared. They have a strong team of players and will have plenty of support during this contest.
There is still no word on whether Birmingham Phoenix skipper Moeen Ali will rejoin the team after sitting out the first match. Benny Howell will remain the team’s captain if, as anticipated, he is rested, with Chris Woakes and Liam Livingstone also sitting out the game.
Trent Rockets
Both their batting lineup and their bowling attack for Trent Rockets are incredibly deep. The competition will be fierce on Saturday night at Edgbaston.
Rashid Khan, an Afghan spinner, was scheduled to participate in the first three games of the competition but withdrew owing to an injury. Trent Rockets, on the other hand, had more than enough to defeat Southern Brave on Tuesday, therefore we do not anticipate any roster adjustments.

Birmingham Phoenix vs Trent Rockets Team Form in Last 5 Matches
The captains’ preferred strategy in the 2023 Men’s Hundred is to field first. In this match, we anticipate that both skippers will elect to field first.
There is a good risk of rain throughout this game on a cool Birmingham evening. No more than 14 degrees will be the temperature.
Edgbaston’s playing surface generates high scores while also providing something for bowlers. The pitch should turn and bounce.
