Manchester Super Giants Form

Manchester Super Giants have enjoyed a superb season, finishing second in the league stage after a major improvement on their previous campaign, when they managed only three wins and missed out on the Eliminator.

They did suffer a difficult spell with three consecutive defeats, but responded strongly with three straight victories to secure their place in the knockout stage. The Super Giants will look to Tim Seifert to lead the batting charge. He has been excellent this season, scoring 322 runs in eight matches at an average of 53.66, including four half-centuries.

Seifert was also the star in the Super Giants' previous meeting with Sunrisers Leeds, smashing 80 from 40 balls as his side chased 128 without losing a wicket. Jos Buttler has also been influential, scoring 278 runs in six innings at an average of 69.50.

With the ball, Gus Atkinson has been outstanding, taking 12 wickets in eight matches and sitting among the tournament’s leading wicket-takers. Josh Tongue has also impressed with nine wickets this season.

Sunrisers Leeds Form

Sunrisers Leeds have also had an excellent season, but they come into the Eliminator needing a response after a heavy 10-wicket defeat to Manchester Super Giants in their previous match.

Batting first, Sunrisers managed only 127 and then failed to take a wicket, exposing concerns in their bowling attack ahead of this crucial fixture. Their batting has been their biggest strength, led by Mitchell Marsh, the tournament’s top run-scorer. Marsh has made 406 runs in eight matches at an average of 50.75, including four half-centuries.

Ryan Rickelton has also been in superb form, scoring 291 runs in eight matches with a highest score of 94 and a strike rate above 176. With the ball, Sunrisers will look to Brydon Carse, who has taken 11 wickets this season, and Nathan Ellis, who has claimed 10. Matthew Potts and Abrar Ahmad add further options as the Sunrisers aim to fix their bowling issues and bounce back.

Team news

The Sunrisers have a powerful line-up and they are sure to trust them to regroup after their 10-wicket demolition at the hands of the Super Giants.

Manchester Super Giants (possible XI): Tim Seifert, Paul Walter, Jos Buttler (c), Heinrich Klaasen, Leus du Plooy, Michael Bracewell, Liam Dawson, Gus Atkinson, Noor Ahmed, Josh Tongue, Sonny Baker.

Sunrisers Leeds (possible XI): Mitchell Marsh, Ryan Rickelton, Harry Brook, Dan Lawrence, Zak Crawley (c), Matthew Revis, Tom Lawes, Brydon Carse, Matthew Potts, Nathan Ellis, Abrar Ahmed.

Verdict

Manchester Super Giants v Sunrisers Leeds

The Super Giants are backed to beat the Sunrisers in back-to-back matches. Tim Seifert is in incredible form and is the obvious choice to back as the Super Giants’ best batter, while Gus Atkinson’s form with the ball has my confidence.
