The much-anticipated sixth match of The Hundred Men’s Competition 2023 between Manchester Originals and London Spirit turned out to be a rain-affected encounter. Although the match couldn’t be completed due to bad weather, it saw 16 overs being bowled, with Manchester skipper Jos Buttler going berserk against the Spirit bowlers and lighting up the stadium with his power hitting.
The game saw Manchester scoring 138 runs for the loss of five wickets in 16 overs until rain interrupted the play, and the match was called off. Buttler was the star of the innings for Manchester. He hammered a brilliant 62 runs off just 36 deliveries, including three fours and five gigantic sixes. Buttler provided a strong foundation for the Manchester’s innings. Among the five maximums smashed by Buttler, two travelled a long distance and left everyone in awe. Those two hits by the 32-year-old even went viral over the internet, and fans hailed the him for his ability to play both seamer and spinner with the same elegance.

The first stunning hit from the Buttler that has been doing round on the internet is him smacking the 22nd ball of the match by Daniel Worrall, where he clears the front leg, opens his hips, and smokes the good length ball over midwicket. Meanwhile, the second six by the wicketkeeper batter that is being widely appreciated comes against spinner Matthew Critchley who he hits over long-on by stepping out of the crease.
Apart from Buttler, Philip Salt (21 runs off 9 balls) and Max Holden (24 runs off 16 balls) also made valuable contributions to the total.
On the other hand, Ravi Bopara proved to be the most effective bowler for London Spirit, taking two wickets while conceding only 12 runs in his 1.4 overs. Worrall, Liam Dawson and Matt Critchley also chipped in with crucial wickets.
However, the weather gods intervened just as the first innings was to reach its conclusion and the match was abandoned due to persistent rain. Both teams had to share the points in this frustrating rain-curtailed contest.
