Player Interview: Chris Benjamin, Birmingham Phoenix
Listen now
Description
Chris Benjamin is one of the most amazing cricket stories to come out of The Hundred.  He has gone from university student to Warwickshire's second XI to Birmingham Phoenix in just a couple of months.   But he has grasped every opportunity. In his first match against London Spirit, he hit a match winning innings, was named Hero Of The Match and had Kevin Petersen drooling with his inventive shots.  Since then, the impressive Birmingham Phoenix have swept aside their competition and on Saturday 21 August 2021 Chris will play his first ever match at Lord's... in the final of The Hundred.  Rich and Tom ask Chris all about that journey, where it can take him next and whether he would rather face a fast ball from Marchant de Lange or Tymal Mills!   Watch the video here: https://youtu.be/hW4Q-Ol6DhY Twitter: https://twitter.com/thehundredclub1
