The Houston Hurricanes (HOH) will take on the St Louis Americans (SLA) in the 50th match of the Minor League Cricket 2022 at Prairie View Cricket Complex in Texas on Sunday, July 24.
The Houston Hurricanes have had a mediocre tournament, having lost three of their last five games. Although they are coming off a six-wicket win over Lone Star Athletics, consistency has been their main issue. Ashley Nurse and Sohail Tanvir have struggled for them, so the team will be hoping that they can get back into shape in the upcoming games to help their side overcome inconsistency.
St Louis Americans, on the other hand, had a rough start to the tournament. They lost their first game by nine wickets to SET, but have since made an incredible comeback, defeating the Chicago Tigers by five wickets in their previous game. They will be hoping to keep their winning streak going in the next game.
