Chasing costs more at The Rose Bowl than at Edgbaston — 17.0 runs against 16.8
Across the T20 cricket we hold ball-by-ball data for at these two grounds, sides batting first at
The Rose Bowl average 160.1 and sides chasing average
143.1 — a 17.0-run gap, a clear edge to batting first. At
Edgbaston the same gap is 16.8 runs
(162.3 batting first, 145.5 chasing), a clear edge to batting first.
The Rose Bowl scores at 7.58 an over overall against
7.696 at Edgbaston. The chase at The Rose Bowl is at its worst through
overs 17-20, where it manages just 5.6 an over and loses
0.9 wickets; a first innings there peaks at
8.775 in overs 17-20.
What that means for this fixture: the toss is worth more at The Rose Bowl than at
Edgbaston, and a chase there that loses an early wicket is in more trouble than the scoreboard
suggests. At Edgbaston a side batting second has more room to absorb one.
Small samples — 10 matches at
The Rose Bowl, 6 at Edgbaston — and drawn from T20 fixtures at
those grounds rather than from The Hundred, whose innings is 20 balls shorter. Read them as ground character,
not as a forecast. The live model does not use these averages at all: once a ball is bowled it works from the
actual over-by-over run and wicket pattern.

BIR PHX vs SOU BRV — FAQs
Who will win Birmingham Phoenix vs Southern Brave?
We do not publish a pre-match favourite, because we have nothing to base one on that you could check. Our model is a live model: it produces nothing useful until a ball is bowled, and then recalculates after every one from the score, wickets in hand, required rate and how the pitch is actually playing. What the ground record does say is that the toss matters more at The Rose Bowl, where sides batting first average 160.1 and chasing sides 143.1 across 10 recorded T20s — a 17.0-run gap, against 16.8 at Edgbaston.
