Match preview
Sunrisers Leeds face Manchester Super Giants in the 10th match of The Hundred Men’s Competition 2026 at Lord’s. Leeds have had a mixed start, losing to MI London before beating Southern Brave by five runs, while Super Giants have won both of their games.
Leeds’ win owed much to an opening stand of 111 between Mitchell Marsh and Ryan Rickelton. Harry Brook and Zak Crawley are in the order, and Dan Lawrence arrives in form after 51 off 25 balls. Brydon Carse has been among the bowling standouts, Abrar Ahmed took two wickets last time out, and Nathan Ellis and Matthew Potts add control and pace.
Manchester recovered from losing Aiden Markram and Tim Seifert cheaply against Birmingham Phoenix as Jos Buttler hit 90 off 50 balls and Tom Moores 39 off 17, taking the side to 187. Heinrich Klaasen is still to come in the middle order. Gus Atkinson leads the pace group with support from Sonny Baker and Josh Tongue, and Noor Ahmad and Liam Dawson offer spin. With both departments in form, Manchester are our pick.
Lord’s generally offers a balanced T20 contest. Good bounce and carry let batters play confidently once set, while seamers can get swing and movement with the new ball in English conditions. The pitch tends to improve for batting as the innings goes on and the quick outfield rewards well-timed strokes. Spinners can matter in the middle overs with variations. First-innings totals of 160–175 are usually competitive and anything above 180 puts the chasing side under pressure.
