Hampshire made a thrilling start to their campaign with a nail-biting win in the Super Over against the Rangpur Riders. Their bowlers showcased resilience and composure under pressure, securing a much-needed victory. Captain Chris Wood will look to build on this success and maintain their winning momentum.
Batting remains an area to improve as Tom Prest and Ali Orr struggled in the last game. However, Shan Masood stood out with a match-winning innings and will be key once again. The likes of Joe Weatherley, Toby Albert, and Felix Organ need to step up to add depth to their lineup.
The bowling unit was exceptional in their opener. Chris Wood and Sonny Baker impressed with the new ball, while experienced campaigners Liam Dawson and James Fuller held their nerve in critical moments. With spinners like Danny Briggs and the all-round option of Felix Organ, Hampshire possesses a balanced attack.

Lahore Qalandars Preview
The Lahore Qalandars had a tough start, losing their opening game to the Guyana Amazon Warriors by six wickets. Poor batting cost them, as they failed to put up a competitive total. Skipper Carlos Brathwaite will demand a stronger response from his team in this crucial match.
Adam Rossington showed glimpses of his form but needs support from Mirza Baig to provide a solid start. In the middle order, Tom Abell remains the key batter, with partnerships expected from Muhammad Faizan and Luke Wells. Contributions from Brathwaite and Muhammad Akhlaq in the lower order will also be crucial.
The bowling unit, led by Faheem Ashraf and Salman Mirza, did well in patches but lacked consistency. Spinners Tabraiz Shamsi and Asif Afridi will play a vital role in controlling the middle overs. Brathwaite’s ability to take wickets at crucial junctures will also be critical to their chances.
- Key Players: Tom Abell, Faheem Ashraf, Tabraiz Shamsi
