Team Previews
Oval Invincibles Women Preview
Oval Invincibles enter this match after a disappointing batting collapse in their previous outing, being bundled out for just 72 runs in a chase of 162. Despite having strong names like Meg Lanning, Alice Capsey, and Marizanne Kapp, their middle order has not clicked consistently. Kapp remains their key all-rounder, delivering with both bat and ball, while Franklin and Amanda Wellington have provided breakthroughs in the bowling department.
The team has strength in its top order, but consistency remains the biggest challenge. A solid batting effort from Lanning or Capsey could shift momentum in their favor.
Predicted XI: Lauren Hill, Meg Lanning, Alice Capsey, Paige Scofield, Marizanne Kapp, Franklin, Amanda Wellington, Joanne Gardener, Tash Farrant, Sophia Smale, Daisy Gibb
Trent Rockets Women Preview
Trent Rockets also struggled in their last match, posting 111/7, with Nat Sciver top-scoring with 34 runs. Despite cameos from Bryony Smith, Natasha Wrath, and Ash Gardener, they failed to cross 120. Their bowlers, led by Alana King and Kristie Gordan, were unable to break partnerships, conceding 113 runs without a wicket.
For Rockets to challenge Invincibles, Sciver must lead from the front, supported by Bryony Smith and Ash Gardener. Their bowling attack, though economical, needs breakthroughs at crucial moments.
Predicted XI: Nat Sciver, Bryony Smith, Jodi Grewcock, Natasha Wrath, Ash Gardener, Alexa Stoneman, Alana King, Kristie Gordan, Threlked, Cassidy McCarthy, Heather Graham

Favourite Team Today
Oval Invincibles Women enter this contest as the favorites due to their stronger balance in both batting and bowling. Despite their collapse in the previous game, they have multiple match-winners across departments. Marizanne Kapp’s all-round abilities and Meg Lanning’s leadership provide stability in crunch situations. Their bowling unit, featuring Amanda Wellington and Tash Farrant, has proven its ability to restrict strong batting lineups.
Trent Rockets, while reliant on Nat Sciver, appear to lack depth in their batting. Their over-dependence on a few key players has cost them matches this season. On the bowling front, they have struggled to take wickets consistently, which is a concern in a format like The Hundred.
Given the overall depth, firepower, and experience, Oval Invincibles are better placed to secure a win in this encounter.
