The Hundred 2024, LNS vs MNR: Team Previews

London Spirit

London Spirit is currently placed at number seven on the eight-team The Hundred Men’s 2024 points table, having secured just a solitary win from five games. In a bid to sustain any outside chances of qualifying for the playoffs, London Spirit needs to win each of their remaining three fixtures and hope for certain exterior results to go their way.

Amidst all their struggles, left-arm spinner Liam Dawson has emerged as London Spirit’s standout performer of the season so far. With the bat, the 34-year-old is the only Spirit batter to have tallied over 100 runs this season. Moreover, the cricketer has also scalped the most wickets for the franchise, picking up seven victims in five innings.

Manchester Originals

Manchester Originals is yet to secure a single win this season, and are fittingly placed at the bottom of the points table. With five successive defeats, their Originals’ NRR reads a dismal figure of -1.216. Already out of the contention for the playoffs, the Originals can still salvage some pride towards the backend of the competition.

Among the batters, Matthew Hurst and makeshift captain Phil Salt have emerged as their highest run-scorers of the season so far. With the ball, Usama Mir will once again be expected to start out as one of the key figures of the Originals’ line-up.
