Headingley

Northern Superchargers will take on Oval Invincibles in match number 15 of The Hundred Men's Competition 2023 at Headingley, Leeds on Friday, August 11. The action will kick off from 11:00 PM IST.

In the 2022 edition of The Hundred Men's competition, Northern Superchargers finished sixth after winning four of their eighth league stage matches. Oval Invincibles finished fifth in the 8-team table after winning four and losing as many matches.

Northern Superchargers vs Oval Invincibles Chance of Winning

Oval Invincibles are very likely to beat Northern Superchargers in their upcoming match as the reasons behind are quite obvious.

Oval Invincibles registered a big 94-run win against a very strong Manchester Origianals side in their last outing. Their star-studded batting unit finally showed the destruction they can cause. Jason Roy, Will Jacks and Heincrich Klaasen were on top of their game. The side also features the likes of Sam Curran, Tom Curran, Sam Billings and Sunil Narine. They can prove to be too hot to handle for the Northern Superchargers. While Narine picked three wickets for 12 runs, Spencer Johnson gave just one run off 20 balls to pick three wickets. Pacer Gus Atkinson has also been doing good.

On the flip side, Northern Superchargers’ top-three of Tom Banton, Matthew Short and Harry Brook failed against Trent Rockets. The talent is there but their Oval Invincibles counterparts are very far ahead of them in terms of experience. Northern Superchargers have a good bowling unit but the strong and highly experienced batting line-up Oval Invincibles will have an edge over them.

The star-studded batting unit fired to post a 187-run target before the bowling unit consisting of Spencer Johnson, Gus Atkinson, Sam Curran, Nathan Sowter and Sunil Narine shined again. Northern Superchargers have been riding on the brilliance of their bowlers Reece Topley, Callum Parkinson, Wayne Parnell and Adil Rashid but things would not be easy for them in a front of a very potent Invincibles batting line-up.
