The best bowler was Sunil Narine, who had a remarkable economy rate of 6.25 and took 2 wickets in his allowed quota while only letting up 25 runs.

On Sunday afternoon in Cardiff, Welsh Fire and Oval Invincibles will square off in Match 5 of the 2022 Men’s Hundred. The 2021 Champions, Southern Brave, crushed the hosts by 9 wickets in their season-opening match, and oval Invincibles lost against London Spirit by 3 runs. Beginning at 14:00 local time, the game.

Welsh Fire had not had a good week because Jonny Bairstow, their captain and finest player, withdrew from the event just one day before it began. They must now look ahead, although it will be very difficult.

The Oval Invincibles will still be hurting from their Thursday night home loss to their London rivals. Expect the top order to perform well with the bat, which will help to secure a victory.

Welsh Fire vs Oval Invincibles Match Toss Prediction

Welsh Fire vs Oval Invincibles Pitch Report

In white ball games this year, it has been a pitch most suited to seam and swing bowlers. Be on the lookout for hitters aiming for the short, straight boundary at the River Taff End of the field.

Welsh Fire Team News & Probable Playing XIs

We anticipate Welsh Fire to perform better after a more composed lead-up to this match. Jonny Bairstow’s departure from The Hundred for the 2022 season was devastating, especially for the team that depended so heavily on him. Fire picked their best XI for Match 1, although David Miller should be available for this match.

Oval Invincibles Team News & Probable Playing XIs

It was surprising that Oval Invincibles defeated London Spirit after the top order’s batting meltdown. Still, they did so because of the lower order’s performance and aggressive bowling. Rilee Rossouw is anticipated to enter the game.

Oval Invincibles is the favourite to win this match.

The Hundred season is not over if you lose the opening game, but both sides will be eager to win this game for the first time this year. Both teams have plenty of skill, but Oval Invincibles appear to have a more significant number of dependable players. We believe Rossouw will be a huge boost and are rooting for the Invincibles to triumph.
