Probable Top Performers from SOB vs LNS
Probable Best Batter of the Match
Finn Allen had a dismal T20 World Cup 2024 campaign as he scored just 35 runs from four innings, including two ducks. However, he would want to bounce back with a strong performance in The Hundred. Last season, he finished as the second-highest run-getter, with 240 runs from nine innings at an average of 26.66 and a strike rate of 144.57. If he fires for Southern Brave at the top, it will make things easier for the rest of the batting lineup.
Probable Best Bowler of the Match
Tymal Mills finished as the leading wicket-taker last season and will want to continue his purple patch in the tournament this year. In eight innings, he bagged 16 wickets at an average of 13.06 and an economy rate of 7.83. His overs, especially at the death, is going to be crucial for Southern Brave.
