Birmingham Phoenix Women vs Oval Invincibles Women Betting Odds

Birmingham Phoenix Women to score over 19.5 runs before their 1st dismissal @ 1.85 (Pari Match)

Birmingham Phoenix Women posted the scores of 29, 39 & 41 runs before suffering their first loss in the three games they played. Skipper Eve Jones and Sophie Devine opened for them in the first two games but Tess Flintoff replaced Jones in the last game. Devine, Jones and Flintoff are averaging close to 34.00, 14.00 and 20.00 respectively in the competition. All three of them are in fantastic form which makes us believe that Birmingham will score over 19.5 runs before losing their first wicket in the game.

Birmingham Phoenix Women vs Oval Invincibles Women Top Batters

Sophie Devine to be Birmingham Phoenix Women’s Best Batter

Skipper Sophie Devine did not have a fantastic season last year but the 33-year-old has been in phenomenal form this season. She has posted scores of 29, 27 & 46 runs respectively in the three games she played this season. She is her side’s top run-scorer this season with 102 runs at an average of 34.00. Devine is the only batter from her side who is consistently scoring runs and therefore we have backed her to be Birmingham Phoenix Women’s top batter in the game.

Alice Capsey to be Oval Invincibles Women’s Best Batter

With 66 runs in three outings at an average of 22.00, Alice Capsey is Oval Invincibles Women’s top run-scorer this season. She was the reason OVI-W picked up their only win of the season so far against MNR-W. Capsey scored a half century in that game off 41 deliveries. Although Capsey has lacked consistency this season, we have backed her to be the best batter for Oval Invincibles Women against Birmingham Phoenix Women.

Birmingham Phoenix Women vs Oval Invincibles Women Top Bowlers

Katie Levick to be Birmingham Phoenix Women’s Best Bowler

Playing for her new team, Katie Levick has been lethal with the leather in hand picking up five wickets in three matches. Levick picked up one in the first game and followed it up by picking two each in the next two matches. She has an average of 11.60 this season and conceded runs at an economy of 5.80. Considering her recent form, she remains to be the top bowling prospect for Birmingham Phoenix Women in the game.

Marizanne Kapp to be Oval Invincibles Women’s Best Bowler

Marizanne Kapp has been a menace to the opposition batters this season in the Hundreds Women competition. She has picked up 7 wickets in three matches thus far at an average of 9.14 and conceded runs at an economy of 6.40. Last season, she picked up four wickets in as many games. We predict Kapp to continue her magic with the ball and be the top bowler for Oval Invincibles Women against Birmingham Phoenix Women.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win: Oval Invincibles Women

The current run of form suggests that it will be too much for Birmingham Phoenix Women to beat defending champions Oval Invincibles Women in this game. The latter are placed above the former in the ladder and have a better net run rate too. With the likes of skipper Dane Van Niekerk, Suzie Bates and Mady Villiers in decent touch with the bat, the title holders will be looking to deliver a clinical batting performance in this fixture. The sides have met thrice in the past and Oval Invincibles Women were the ones to beat Birmingham Phoenix Women in each of the past three meetings. All that said, we expect Oval Invincibles Women to register a close knit win over Birmingham Phoenix Women in this fixture.
