It's a game of existence and demise for London Spirit. A win here keeps their hopes of advancing to the next round. Their batsmen haven't got much time at their positions and must perform in this game to prove their dominance. Trent Rockets have an excellent batting lineup and have never fallen to London Spirit. Thus it makes TR the favourite to win this game.
