Kennington Oval is a good venue where we have good balance between the bat and ball with new ball expected to swing and seam around. We expect the scores to be around 160-170 runs in this match.
Both skippers will look to field first as chasing has been the most preferred option in the modern day game in shortest formats.
Oval Invincinbles have almost a new look batting line up with 2-3 new batters in the playing XI. They have good depth in batting and bowling departments with good allrounders in the playing XI. Birmingham Phoenix miss a lot of their first choice players owing to national commitments and have a slightly inexperienced batting line up. They have a strong core of pacers bug rely on allrounders in spin department. We expect Oval Invincinbles to win this match as they have better all round team when compared to Birmingham Phoenix in this match
