MNR vs BHP 11Wickets Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing 11, Pitch Report and Injury Update for Men’s English 100 Balls League Men 2021, Match 6

Preview

Manchester Originals couldn’t make a fruitful start to the season, suffering a nine-run defeat against Oval Invincibles in the season opener. Chasing 146 at the Kennington Oval in London, the Jos Buttler-led side couldn’t get a stellar start with the top order not contributing much. All-rounders Calvin Harrison and Carlos Brathwaite played some good shots in the death overs, but their efforts weren’t enough.

On the other hand, Birmingham Phoenix kick-started their campaign by defeating London Spirit in their maiden assignment. The London-based side did pretty well by posting 144/6 in the first innings. However, handy cameos from skipper Moeen Ali and Chris Benjamin meant the Phoenix cross the line with three balls to spare.

Top Picks for MNR vs BHP 11Wickets Fantasy Cricket:

Moeen Ali is indeed one of the finest all-rounders going around in white-ball cricket. The Birmingham Phoenix captain also scored a match-winning 40 in his last outing and he won’t mind replicating his heroics again.

Although Jos Buttler scored just eight runs in his last outing, one must not forget how effective he can be in this format. The dasher can accumulate quick runs and his knack of staying at the crease for long makes him even more lethal. Not to forget, he can also contribute with his précised glovework.

Liam Livingstone has been the talk of the town lately. The dasher has played one staggering knock after another in T20s this year and Manchester Originals must be aware of him.
