Pitch Report
The Pitch at Lord’s Cricket Ground has a record of assisting the bowlers. The pitch produces a good amount of swing providing great support to pacers. While batters need to remain vigilant & play their shots carefully as the pitch is more bowler-friendly. Teams chasing targets here could have the edge over their opponents. The Weather could be thundery with mild showers expected throughout the fixture.
The team winning the toss should prefer bowling first as in the last season all the Hundred Women fixtures played at Lord’s were won by the chasing teams.
LNS-W vs OVI-W: Winning Prediction
Oval Invincibles looks formidable & comprises a settled unit with the presence of match-winners in their squad. While London Spirits have been inconsistent in the Hundred Tournament & could face a tough challenge from their opponents. Looking at the form of both the teams there are chances of Oval Invincibles winning the fixture.
