Sunrisers Leeds vs London Spirit Toss Prediction
Sunrisers Leeds are predicted to win the toss and elect to bat first at Headingley. The pitch here rewards teams that set targets, and dew settling in the evening could make the ball harder to grip in the second innings, a factor that tilts the advantage towards sides batting first. With Marsh in explosive form, SRL will back their batting unit to post a commanding total.
Headingley, Leeds Pitch Report
Headingley, Leeds
Headingley traditionally offers pace, bounce, and genuine carry, conditions that fast bowlers relish. In the Hundred format, the surface tends to produce competitive totals in the 155–175 range, with the pitch flattening as innings progress. Batters who play on the front foot and hit straight enjoy success here. The square boundaries can be generous, making it a ground that rewards clean striking from the first ball.
Weather Report
Leeds in early August typically sees mild temperatures around 18–22°C, with a risk of cloud cover that can assist swing early on. Dew is a realistic factor during evening play at Headingley, which could offer the chasing side a marginal edge with the ball skidding through quicker. No heavy rain is forecast, and conditions are expected to allow a full 100-ball contest on both sides.

Sunrisers Leeds vs London Spirit Team Preview & Squads
Sunrisers Leeds
Zak Crawley’s captaincy gives Sunrisers a composed, technically sound presence at the helm. As an opening batter, Crawley can set the tone with quick yet measured starts, providing the platform that enables the big hitters below him to take the game deep. His tactical instincts, particularly in field placement and bowling rotations, have made SRL a cohesive unit rather than a collection of individuals.
The batting structure is built around Mitchell Marsh, who is arguably in the form of his life in this tournament. His 63-ball 26 (sic 63 off 26) against Super Giants was barely believable, and that kind of momentum is dangerous for any opposition. Dan Lawrence and Harry Brook provide depth in the middle, ensuring the innings does not collapse if the top order falls cheaply.
Nathan Ellis is the spearhead of a pace-heavy attack that suits Headingley perfectly. His ability to bowl yorkers and variations at the death makes him hard to target. Dan Lawrence doubles as a reliable medium-pace option, Abrar Ahmed brings wrist-spin variety, and Brydon Carse adds raw pace. This Sunrisers Leeds vs London Spirit preview underlines how well-balanced Sunrisers’ bowling resources are heading into this fixture.
Sunrisers Leeds Squad:
Sunrisers Leeds
Zak Crawley, Abrar Ahmed, Charlie Allison, Tom Alsop, Ed Barnard, Harry Brook, Brydon Carse, Nathan Ellis, Benny Howell, Tom Lawes, Dan Lawrence, Mitchell Marsh, Liam Patterson-White, Matthew Potts, Matthew Revis, Ryan Rickelton, Reece Topley
London Spirit
Liam Livingstone is the heartbeat of this Spirit side, a player who can detonate at any moment and shift the course of a match single-handedly. As captain, he also shoulders tactical responsibility, and his part-time leg-spin adds another dimension. The pressure is on Livingstone to deliver a standout individual performance if Spirit are to arrest a run that has seen them win only once in their last four completed matches.
Jonny Bairstow’s explosive presence at the top makes London Spirit dangerous regardless of form. However, it is young Lhuan-dre Pretorius who has caught the eye as a potential match-winner, his clean hitting and aggressive intent make him the player Spirit fans most want to see fire in this clash. Kiran Carlson and James Rew need to contribute in the middle order to build a total worth defending.
David Willey leads a bowling attack that relies on left-arm swing and early wickets to put the opposition under pressure. Adam Milne adds express pace at the other end, while Mason Crane and Adam Zampa form a strong spin partnership for the middle phase. Andrew Tye’s versatility gives Livingstone extra options at the death. The question is whether this unit can contain Marsh and Brook in conditions that may suit pace.
London Spirit Squad:
