The match was originally scheduled for this Sunday.
However, MNC chairman Gordon Cross said a mix-up in communication means the wicket won’t be prepared for Sunday.
United all-rounder Danial Stone will lead Manning into the match against the three-time defending champions.
Manning’s record in over 35 cricket since the competition was established has been underwhelming. Last season Manning failed to win a match, although all games were closely contested.
However, Manning will go into the February 18 match with an unbeaten record this summer. This included a win over Gloucester at Gloucester. Stone said this season’s side boasts a powerful batting lineup and this has been instrumental in their run to the final.
He added that Manning ‘got a bit lucky’ in the match against Gloucester and he expects a tight game on February 18. The match will start at 10am.
