Match Preview
In today’s match, it is the Trent Rockets who are up against Welsh Fire for the 29th match of The Hundred. Looking at their performances, the Trent Rockets did lose their last game to Southern Brave but are still at the top of the points table with 10 points in seven games. In the game, the Rockets posted a target of 139 runs for Brave but were not able to defend it due to a lacklustre performance from the bowlers.
Welsh Fire on the other hand lost yet again to Northern Superchargers in the last game. This is also their seventh defeat in the tournament. They really are struggling at the moment and need one win to at least leave the competition with some pride.
Today, it will be almost a one-sided contest as the chances for Welsh Fire look pretty grim.
