The Hundred 2023, MNR vs SOB: Match Prediction, Dream11 Team, Fantasy Tips & Pitch Report
The impending clash between the Manchester Originals (MNR) and the Southern Brave (SOB) in the eliminator, set to unfold at London’s Kennington Oval on Saturday (August 26), promises to be a high-stakes showdown. The winner of this contest will have the honor of challenging the table-topping Oval Invincibles (OVI) in the championship game.
The Originals wrapped up the league stage on a commendable note, securing the second position with a total of nine points. Their journey included four- hard-fought victories, three losses, and one game that concluded without a result. Nevertheless, as they enter this pivotal encounter, they carry the memory of a recent defeat to the Brave in their previous showdown at Old Trafford, Manchester.
On the flip side, the Brave secured their place in the eliminator with a resounding six-wicket victory over the Originals at Old Trafford, Manchester. This victory not only propelled them into the eliminator but also dashed the hopes of Welsh Fire (WEF) in the men’s competition. Although both the Welsh and the Brave finished with an identical points tally, the Brave clinched the third spot thanks to their superior Net Run Rate (+0.061), whereas the Welsh lagged behind with a Net Run Rate of (-0.055). This distinction earned the Southern Brave the opportunity to compete for a coveted spot in the finals.
