The Hundred Men’s Competition 2023: Match 29, OVI vs TRT Match Prediction – Who will win today’s match between OVI vs TRT?

In order to cement their place in the playoffs, Trent Rockets cannot afford to drop any points when they challenge league leaders Oval Invincibles in their upcoming match on August 21 in Kennington Oval in London. The Lewis Gregory-led side was sensational in their last match, beating Birmingham Phoenix by 46 runs and with that, they currently have seven points to their name in seven matches. Sam Hain and Colin Munro were phenomenal with the bat, while Daniel Sams picked up three wickets to rattle Birmingham’s batting unit.

Despite so, beating Invincibles will not be an easy task. The Sam Billings-led side won four out of their last five matches, and that shows the form they are in at the moment. However, in the last match, the top and middle order absolutely failed to step up with the bat, and that is one area Rockets would love to capitalise on. Tom Curran meanwhile rescued Invincibles in the last match with a sublime performance with both bat and ball.
