Both London Spirit (LNS) and Birmingham Phoenix (BPH) lost their opening game of the ongoing Hundred 2024. A second loss would put either team in a difficult spot and neither of them can afford that, which makes the upcoming clash at Lord’s a scintillating one.

London lost to Southern Brave by seven wickets as a better batting performance was expected from the Daniel Lawrence-led side. The openers flopped and after that, the skipper took control of the situation and later, Liam Dawson smacked well as London posted 138 runs in the first innings but their bowlers failed to defend that.

Birmingham, on the other hand, had a terrible day against Oval Invincibles in the opening match. Eight players in the team scored in single digit as the Moeen Ali-led side posted just 89 runs in the first innings. They need to improve significantly with both bat and bowl to produce a favourable outcome against London.

Probable Best Batter of the Match: Daniel Lawrence

Captain Lawrence’s performance was one of the big positives for London in their opening game. The 27-year-old made 38 runs and would be hoping to keep up with the momentum in the match against Birmingham. Batting at number four, he will look forward to leading by example.
