THE LOWDOWN
OVAL INVINCIBLES
Oval Invincibles had a weekend to forget at Edgbaston. Not only did they suffer defeat at the hand of Birmingham Phoenix, they also lost a key player through injury. Batter Jordan Cox has been in fine form across the tournament this year, but broke a finger facing up to Adam Milne and had to retire hurt. He has since been ruled out of the remained for the tournament, a significant blow. Adding insult to injury, the Invincibles ended up losing against their lowly opponents, 41 runs the margin of defeat.
LONDON SPIRIT
London Spirit came through a thriller against Trent Rockets to breathe serious live into their campaign. That result was their first win of the competition and took them up to four points at the halfway stage of proceedings. Captain Dan Lawrence starred with 93 from 49 balls as the Spirit posted 195/4 against the Rockets and despite the best efforts of Joe Root, the hosts held their nerve and closed the game out, winning by two runs.
THE PREDICTION
Although Oval Invincibles are undoubtedly weakened by the loss of Cox to their team, they have enough strength-in-depth within their squad to cover for his absence and playing at the Kia Oval will also help them, allowing the hosts to pick a team with a clear strategy in mind based on the wicket they will be playing on. Spencer Johnson conceded just one run in his last game on this ground and the Australian pacer will be a nightmare for his opponents to handle here. Back Oval Invincibles to complete a London double over the Spirit in this year’s Men’s Hundred.
BETTING TIP: OVAL INVINCIBLES TO WIN
