The Hundred's Men

Match 12: WEF vs BPH

Preview

WEF and BPH will square off in match number 12 of the Hundred 2022 at the Sophia Gardens, Cardif. After losing to the OVI on Sunday, WEF would look to return to winning ways. In the last game, WEF were restricted to 119 runs while chasing a target of 158 runs. 

While Joe Clarke and Ben Duckett will hold the key for WEF in the batting department, Adam Zampa and Ryan Giggs will be the bowlers to watch out for.  

BPH are coming into this match with a huge win over the SOB on Wednesday. Will Smeed scored an unbeaten 101 to propel his team to a mammoth total of 176 runs batting first. SOB in reply could only muster 123 runs on the board. We expect the likes of Will Smeed and Liam Livingstone to deliver the goods with bat in hand. Both have proven their prowess as a power hitter and we fancy the duo to do well in this game. Harry Brooks and Kane Richardson will shoulder the bowling responsibility for Ali and co. The two hunted in pair in the last game and picked a total of 8 wickets.
