Manchester Originals look to overcome their disappointing start to the season and a poor head-to-head record against the Trent Rockets when they prepare for a home match at Old Trafford on Monday. The Originals will be under additional pressure as they look to recover from a crushing seven-wicket loss against Welsh Fire.
Trent Rockets, meanwhile, are one of the four teams to have begun the new season with a victory, as they were able to get a crucial victory over Northern Superchargers. A superior Net Run Rate also puts the Rockets in second place in the group table.
The odds are heavily stacked against the Originals in this game. The Originals last beat the Rockets back in 2021. The most recent encounter saw the Rockets pick up a nine-wicket victory.

Manchester Originals are likely to feel the pressure of playing in front of their ers after having come up with a very poor display in the opening game of the season. The team could only post 113 runs from their 100 balls against the Welsh Fire.
One feature of the opening game from the Originals was the lack of strength in the middle and lower order of the batting line-up. Only Laura Wolvaardt and Sophie Ecclestone were able to post more than 20 runs each. Wolvaardt was the top scorer for the Originals last season with 147 runs and she may also be the big hope for the team in 2024.
Fi Morris was the most impressive of the bowlers with two wickets for 20 runs from her 16 balls. It may not come as a big surprise with the 30-year-old also managing the most wickets (8) for the Originals in the 2023 season. The Captain of the Originals, Sophie Ecclestone was the only other bowler to pick up a wicket but her economy was on the higher side (1.4 runs per ball).

The strong display for Trent Rockets against the Northern Superchargers in the opening match did provide a lot of surprise. Last season, the Rockets had finished five points behind the Superchargers in the group stages, but the opening game of 2024 for both teams witnessed a sea change. The Rockets were able to make a significant improvement in their bowling numbers to get a 20-run victory.
A strong display in the early exchanges of the match came about from Trent Rockets through the likes of Bryony Smith and Grace Scrivens, who combined for a partnership of 47 from 33 balls. Even though the contribution from the middle order was not significant, the Rockets will be counting on Smith and Scrivens once again. Interestingly, Smith was the top scorer for the Rockets in 2023 with 226 runs from her seven innings.
Superchargers were not given any look into the game thanks to impressive bowling performances from the likes of Heather Graham and Nat Sciver-Brunt. Kirstie Gordon picked up 10 wickets in the 2023 season but she could muster only one wicket against the Superchargers.

The weather conditions in Manchester are likely to be mostly cloudy on Monday. The main speeds are expected to be around 13 km/h while the maximum temperature might hover around 26°C. The pitch can be a great surface for putting in a lot of good scores. If the wicket is dry, there will be some turn for the spinners in the latter half of the game.

Old Trafford in Manchester prepares to host its first game of the season. Out of the three games which took place at the Old Trafford as part of the women’s hundred competition in the 2023 season, the average first innings score stood at 104. The average second innings score was at 106.6.
The teams which won the toss and elected to field first were on the successful side in two of the three completed Women’s Hundred matches on this ground in 2023. The pitch could play out much better and in favour of the batters as the game progresses. Teams winning the toss are likely to bowl first and make use of the seaming conditions early in the game.
Manchester Originals doesn't have depth in their batting unit, which was the main reason for their loss against the Welsh Fire. Meanwhile, the Trent Rockets boast a much more balanced squad and depth than their counterparts. Having won their last two head-to-head matches and heading into the game on the back of a dominant performance in the season opener, we back Trent Rockets to win.
Our prediction is for Trent Rockets to win!
