Simon Dalton presents his bet on the opening match of The fourth edition of The Hundred.
Last season Northern Superchargers performed poorly at The Hundreds, they won only 2 out of 8 matches. One of these wins was against Trent Rocket. In the head-to-head series Rockets leads 2:1
Northern Superchargers ended up in the last place in the rankings. Their first opponent in the new Hundreds tournament is Trent Rockets. Last year, the Superchargers beat the Rockets by 3 runs. Today, bookmakers think they will lose. It will be hard for them to surprise, as the Rockets wants to get revenge after losing last season.
The Rockets ended last season with 3 wins and 4 losses. They didn't make it to the playoffs. One reason was their loss to the Superchargers at the start. In 2021 and 2022, Rockets easily beat them. Visitors are expected to win this match.
Trent Rockets have extra motivation for this game: they want revenge for losing their last meeting. The team from Nottingham is likely to win against the Superchargers.
