LDN vs MSG Match Prediction & Analysis
The Hundred is back for another season, and London Spirit will take on the Manchester Super Giants in the 3rd game of the season at Lord’s. The home team hasn’t won a game against Manchester since 2022, losing 3 of their 4 matches, with one ending without a result.
There have been plenty of changes to the squads, and most of the key players from London Spirit aren’t part of their 2026 squad. Liam Livingstone will be leading the side instead of Kane Williamson, while other top-order batters like Jamie Smith, David Warner, and Ollie Pope are also missing from the squad.
Manchester Super Giants, on the other hand, retained some key game-changers from last year. Josh Tongue and Sonny Baker continue being part of the bowling attack while the big-hitters Jos Buttler and Heinrich Klaasen will be seen in the middle order.
Another big piece of news from Super Giants’ camp is the signing of bowling all-rounder Liam Dawson, who was part of London Spirit last year and delivered a winning spell in their last outing at Lord’s. He will be one to watch out for in this match.

TEAMS PREVIEW
London Spirit Preview
It won’t be easy to get off to a steady start for London Spirit considering the number of changes made to their squad. The playing XI will look a lot different from last year. Though there are some brilliant players in every department, finding the right balance is always a challenge.
Jonny Bairstow would be an ideal choice to open the innings. Kiran Carlson could open alongside him, while they also have other options in Lhuan dre-Pretorius and James Rew. Not retaining Jamie Smith is a strange decision. The young wicket-keeper batsman was a fine opening choice for London Spirit and delivered quite a few handy knocks at the top.
All eyes will be on Dewald Brewis in the middle order. The rising star from South Africa, dubbed as ‘baby AB’ in his early years, can deliver a huge impact with his big-hitting ability. It is an ideal wicket at the ground for Brewis to play his natural game, and we reckon he will be a key batter to watch out for.
He will partner up with Liam Livingstone while other all-rounders like David Willey and Jamie Overton are expected to be in the finisher’s role in the lower middle order. In the bowling department, Willey and Overton will be leading the attack while the skipper can deliver key wickets during the middle phase of the innings with his spin bowling.
The pace attack features some elite players like Tymal Mills, Adam Milne, and Andrew Tye, while the experienced leg-break bowler from Australia, Adam Zampa, will lead the spin bowling for London Spirit.
Interesting Stats
London Spirit won two of their 4 games played at Lord’s in the previous season.
Jamie Overton picked up 2 for 26 in their previous encounter against Manchester in 2025.
London Spirit Predicted Playing XI:
Jonny Bairstow (wk), Lhuan-dre Pretorius, Dewald Pretorius, Liam Livingstone (c), Jamie Overton, David Willey, James Coles, Adam Milne, Tymal Mills, Adam Zampa, Henry Crocombe
London Spirit Actual Playing XI:
Adam Zampa, Jamie Overton, Dewald Brevis, Liam Livingstone, James Rew, James Coles, Tymal Mills, Lhuan dre Pretorius, Adam Milne, David Willey, Kiran Carlson
Manchester Super Giants Preview
Manchester Super Giants finished 6th in the points table last year, with the same number of wins and losses as London Spirit. The Super Giants convincingly beat the Spirit in their last encounter in Manchester.
Noor Ahmed, Sonny Baker, and Josh Tongue were among the wicket-takers in that game. All of them have been retained by MSG for this season. They will be ones to watch out for in this match as Super Giants aim to continue their dominance over London Spirit.
There are plenty of bowling options in the squad for Manchester, also with Liam Dawson joining the camp this season. Bowling all-rounder Gus Atikson is an impactful player who can deliver with both bat and ball. The batting has also gotten stronger this season with Tim Seifert joining the Super Giants.
The wicket-keeper batters add a lot of strength ot this batting lineup. However, much like the opposition, Manchester also has a new captain this year with Aiden Markram taking over the reins. Seifert and Markram can open the innings while Buttler comes in at 3, followed by Leus du Plooy and Klaasen.
It looks like a solid batting order with plenty of options at every position, and we expect some depth in this lineup with Liam Dawson and Gus Atkinson coming in at 6 and 7 in the order.
Interesting Stats
Josh Tongue picked up 3 for 26 in their last encounter against London Spirit.
In their previous match against the home team, Jos Buttler was the top batter with 46 runs.
Manchester Super Giants Predicted Playing XI:
Tim Seifert, Aiden Markram (c), Jos Buttler (wk), Leus du Plooy, Heinrich Klaasen, Liam Dawson, Gus Atkinson, Josh Tongue, Noor Ahmed, Sonny Baker, George Scrimshaw
Manchester Super Giants Actual Playing XI:
Gus Atkinson, Josh Tongue, Aiden Markram, Jos Buttler, Noor Ahmad, Sonny Baker, Heinrich Klaasen, Liam Dawson, Tom Moores, Leus du Plooy, Tim Seifert
PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
It will be mostly cloudy in London around the match, with a high of 25 degrees Celsius and considerably high humidity. These conditions would help the pacers with the new ball. There are no signs of rain, and we expect a complete and uninterrupted game at the home of cricket.
LDN vs MSG Pitch Report
It is a batting-friendly pitch at Lord’s, which saw a very high-scoring game between England and India recently, with both teams scoring 360+ runs. The average first-innings score in the last 5 matches of The Hundred at this venue is 146 runs. Anything over 160 should be a highly competitive total in this match. It will be a balanced contest between bat and ball in this game, given the weather conditions, and we don’t expect a particularly high-scoring game.
Toss: To Bowl
While there is no clear advantage to either batting or bowling first on this ground, with teams bowling first winning 3 of the last 6 matches, the nature of the pitch would prompt the skippers to chase a total. It holds true throughout the game, and if the bowlers can contain the flow of runs in the death overs of the first innings, they will give the team a strong chance of winning.
LDN vs MSG
Winning Prediction
There are some star players in both sides known for their big-hitting abilities, and they will lock horns on a batting-friendly wicket at Lord’s. It will be a highly competitive match between the two teams, but the visitors will have a slight edge going into this contest given their overall squad strength and the players retained from last year. Manchester Super Giants will start as favorites in our match prediction.
