The Hundred predictions

Trent Rockets have a formidable head-to-head record against Manchester Super Giants, their opponents in Sunday's final of the men's Hundred at Lord's.

The Rockets have won six of the seven meetings between the teams and are captained by Sam Billings, who led MI London to the title in each of the past three years.

Billings' new team finished top of this summer's league table, winning their last six matches, and are worthy favourites to beat the Super Giants at the Home of Cricket.

However, Manchester's power hitters found their form at the perfect time and they have struck more sixes than their last four opponents.

Opener Paul Walter has made a stunning impact since replacing Aiden Markram at the top of the order.

The Essex left-hander has hit 17 sixes in four innings – eight of them in his matchwinning 80 in Friday's playoff Eliminator against Sunrisers Leeds at The Oval.

Leeds had looked like the best batting team in the competition until they ran into the Super Giants, who cracked 24 sixes to the Sunrisers' ten in their final league fixture and the Eliminator.

Big-game performer Mooney to come to the party

The Rockets also topped the women's standings, qualifying automatically for the final, and they take on defending champions Sunrisers Leeds.

The Sunrisers won their final four league games, with international stars Phoebe Litchfield, Annabel Sutherland and Deepti Sharma showing their class, before a five-wicket victory over Southern Brave in the Eliminator.

However, they should be wary of Rockets opener Beth Mooney, who was player of the match for her knock of 64 in Australia's T20 World Cup final win over England at Lord's earlier this summer.

Mooney has had six low scores in eight games in The Hundred but she made fifties in her other two innings and is the ultimate big-match performer.

She scored half-centuries in her last four tournament finals for Australia and cracked 61 not out off 39 balls on her Lord's debut for London Spirit in The Hundred in 2022.
