Match report: Manchester Super Giants v Birmingham Phoenix

Birmingham Phoenix Men were unable to make it two wins from two in The Hundred as they lost by 87 runs against Manchester Super Giants at Emirates Old Trafford.

Manchester Super Giants moved to the top of the table in The Hundred men's competition with victory.

As soon as play was possible after rain saw the abandonment of the women's game, the home side impressed. England’s Jos Buttler was the standout performer, his innings of 90 from 50 balls – the second highest in The Hundred at the ground – took Super Giants to an imposing total of 187-7.

Buttler fell just short of his century, but he hit five sixes and seven fours and enjoyed good support from Heinrich Klaasen (20) and then a grandstand finish from Tom Moores, who slammed five maximums in an unbeaten 17-ball 39.

Joe Clarke and Will Smeed started the Phoenix’s reply steadily but the Super Giants’ attack were on point, Josh Tongue bowling with real pace to get two early scalps, Sonny Baker and Gus Atkinson continuing to impress and spinners Noor Ahmed and Liam Dawson making sure that the Phoenix didn’t threaten.

Skipper Donovan Ferreira top scored with 23, as the Super Giants went not only to the top of the table in the men's competition but also to the summit in The Hundred Helix, the new trophy combining women's and men's points.
