Trent Rockets (TRT) will take on Manchester Super Giants (MSG) in the final of The Hundred Men’s 2026 at Lord’s, London, on Sunday. After a tightly contested tournament, the two sides have emerged as the final contenders and will now compete for the coveted title.

Trent Rockets head into the final after finishing at the top of the points table during the league stage. However, they will be looking to put their previous result behind them after suffering a six-wicket defeat against Southern Brave. Ben Duckett has been their leading run-scorer this season, while Craig Overton has been their most successful bowler.

Manchester Super Giants, meanwhile, secured their place in the final with a convincing 20-run victory over Sunrisers Leeds (SRL) in the Eliminator. Paul Walter and Heinrich Klaasen produced explosive knocks to help them post 186, before Josh Tongue’s four-wicket haul restricted Sunrisers Leeds to 166. Tim Seifert has been their leading run-scorer, while Tongue has impressed with the ball.

Lord’s Pitch Report

The Lord’s surface is expected to offer an intriguing contest between bat and ball in the final. The new ball could provide considerable assistance to the fast bowlers, with good pace and bounce allowing them to trouble batters during the early stages. The longer boundaries at the historic venue could also encourage bowlers to attack the stumps and make batters work harder for their boundaries.

Batting conditions are likely to improve as the innings progresses. Once the ball loses some of its movement and shine, stroke-makers should find it easier to play their shots and build partnerships. However, batters will still need to be selective given the dimensions of the ground.

The toss could therefore play an important role in the contest. With the surface potentially becoming more comfortable for batting later in the game, the captain winning the toss may prefer to bowl first and chase under better conditions. A competitive total could be around the 160-170 mark, although a strong batting performance could push the score beyond that range.
