Pre-Match Analysis:

Leinster Lightning are expecting a good start to this tournament. They didn’t have many games last season to prove themselves as they finished 3rd in the standings with 14 points with 3 of their matches being washed out. We can able to see a lot of fresh faces in the announced 12-member squad with the likes of Adam Rosslee, Reuben Wilson, and Mark Donegan. Harry Tector, George Dockrell, and Lorcan Tucker will form the batting line-up. Barry McCarthy and Fionn Hand are the mainstream bowlers.

Northern Knights had a disastrous outing last season, winning only one of their complete 5 matches played and finishing last in the standings with 6 points. They have announced a balanced squad for their 1st fixture led by James McCollum. Neil Rock and Ruhan Pretorius who were the top performers last season will be keen to extend the same this year as well. Bowling hasn’t been a concern for them however their batters need to show a lot of character on the field.
