OVI W vs TRT W: Teams Preview
Oval Invincibles Women Preview
The situation of Oval Invincibles is not ideal as they have managed to clinch just one out of three fixtures they have played at this venue. They haven’t been able to make use of home conditions aptly but in their last game of the league stage they will try their best for a turnaround. They will have to win this fixture if they aim to stay alive in the playoffs race. Their batting order looks promising & they need to make use of their lineup strength if they aim to win this fixture.
In their last fixture against Southern Brave, the Rockets performed well with the bat in hand by posting 130 runs. However here the bowlers failed to exert pressure on the opponents & resulting in their 7-wicket loss. If they aim to bounce back in this fixture then their key batters Winfield-Hill and Marizanne Kapp should step up & deliver, guiding Invincible Women to a decent total. In the bowling attack, there is a need for bowling in proper lengths & find their rhythm. They have variety in their lineup which will allow the captain to rotate the bowlers aptly.
Trent Rockets Women’s Preview
Trent Rockets are rearing for a place in the playoffs as they are marching into this clash on the back of three wins from four fixtures. If they win this match then a place in the playoffs will be a surety for them. Captain Sciver Brunt will hope that her team continues good performances in a crucial fixture against Invincibles.
In their bowling order except for Alana King & Gordon, none of the bowlers was able to pick a wicket in the last fixture. They will need some good show with the ball from Bryone Smith, Alexa Stonehourse, and skipper Nat Sciver-Brunt if winning the fixture is on their mind. In the batting order, Harmanpreet Kaur hasn’t been able to click at No 4. She will have to get back her groove in this crucial fixture. Lizelle Lee and Bryone Smith at the top are leading the run-charts for the Rockets and Nat Sciver-Brunt is also a crucial figure at number 3. Just a balanced show from both batters & bowlers can easily hand them a gleaming win.
