Trent Rockets host Manchester Originals in the next match of the men's Hundred 2023.
The game is due to start at 6.30pm BST on Thursday, August 17.
Trent Rockets' home ground is Trent Bridge in Nottingham.
The two teams have identical records going into this clash, having each won twice, lost twice, and had one game rained off.
With the bat, Jos Buttler (167 runs at a strike rate of 148) and Jamie Overton (144 at 212) lead the run-scoring charts for Manchester Originals. Colin Munro, whose unbeaten half-century helped set the platform for victory at Welsh Fire in the Rockets' most recent outing, is the only Trent player to have passed 100 in the competition (115 at 153).
With the ball, the Originals have lost their leading wicket-taker in Josh Little (seven). Rockets have shared the wickets around, with Daniel Sams leading the way with five - albeit at an expensive economy of 178 runs conceded per 100 balls. Sam Cook (190) and Samit Patel (180) have also been expensive. John Turner's debut at Fire finished with impressive figures of 1 for 21 from 20 balls.
This is the story of four English batsmen at the top of their respective orders.
How Jos Buttler and Phil Salt for Manchester Originals, and Alex Hales and Dawid Malan for Trent Rockets, go in the powerplay could go a long way to deciding the outcome of the game.
