Northern Superchargers Men suffered a heavy 57-run defeat against Manchester Originals Men in Match 17 of The Hundred 2025 at Old Trafford. Manchester, powered by Jos Buttler’s 64 and Heinrich Klaasen’s fiery 50 off 25, posted a strong 171/3 in their 100 balls. In reply, the Superchargers collapsed to 114 all out in 87 balls, with David Miller’s 38 being the only fight. Manchester’s bowlers dominated throughout as Northern Superchargers failed to build partnerships. Here are the main reasons why Northern Superchargers Men lost the match:
1. Manchester's Explosive Batting
The Originals' top order set the tone with Buttler's 64 anchoring the innings, whilst Klaasen's explosive 50 took just 25 balls. Rachin Ravindra added a quick 31 off 14, putting the score out of reach as they all put on an aggressive 171/3.
2. Clinical Bowling from the Originals
The Northern Superchargers were unable to withstand the pressures inflicted by Manchester's bowling attack. Josh Tongue (3/21) and Sonny Baker (3/21) rapidly fractured the Superchargers batting order with timely wickets, while Noor Ahmad and Rachin Ravindra grabbed another two wickets, leaving no opportunity to come back.
3. Superchargers’ Batting Failure
After a steady start from Malan and Crawley, the Superchargers were unable to put together any significant partnerships. David Miller's 38 off 22 was the only resistance, as most of the team were cheaply under the scoreboard's pressure. The inability to accelerate or handle pressure ensured a dramatic collapse.
