In this article we will be analyzing the SOB vs MNR Match Prediction. Southern Brave (SOB) are set to collide with Manchester Originals (MNR) in match No. 11 of The Hundred 2024 at The Rose Bowl in Southampton on Thursday, August 1.
James Vince-led Southern Brave started their campaign with a seven-wicket win against London Spirit as they chased down a 139-run target with 11 balls to spare. However, in their second game, SOB lost to Northern Superchargers by seven wickets after failing to defend a 147-run target.
Meanwhile, Manchester Originals would be desperate to get off the mark in The Hundred 2024 as they have lost both their matches so far. Phil Salt and Co. started with an eight-wicket loss to Welsh Fire in their first game as Tom Abell’s side chased down an 87-run target in just 57 balls. In their most recent clash, Manchester suffered a gut-wrenching one-run defeat to Trent Rockets as they were restricted to 144/8 in their pursuit of a 146-run target.

Pitch Report
Last season, the average first innings score at this venue was 152 in four matches. In the first game this season, the 139-run target was chased down quite easily by Southern Brave against London Spirit. The pitch is generally quite decent and batters can score a lot of runs if they are willing to give themselves some time in the middle. The pacers could get some movement with the new ball and would have to make it count.

Probable Top Performers from SOB vs MNR
Probable Best Batter of the Match
Phil Salt could be the batter to watch out for on Thursday. He hasn’t had the best of starts to the campaign, having registered scores of 0 and 16 so far. However, Salt is one of the most dangerous batters in white-ball cricket and if he gets going, it will be a treat to watch for the cricket enthusiasts.

Like Salt, Jofra Archer has also not been able to stamp his authority so far in the tournament. He has bowled 40 balls and conceded 43 runs at an average of 21.50 and a strike rate of 20. Archer has bagged one wicket each in the two games he has played. Once the right-arm pacer finds his rhythm, he will surely orchestrate some wins for Southern Brave.
