Fantasy Notes - Oval Invincibles (OVI) vs London Spirit (LNS), Men's Hundred 2023
Points to consider
- Jordan Cox, a critical player for the Oval Invincibles, has been ruled out of the tournament due to a finger injury. This would mean that Heinrich Klaasen will most likely become a fix for the Number 3 spot in the team.
- With the CPL starting in a day, Sunil Narine has returned to the Caribbean and will not be part of the remaining matches in the tournament.
- The absence of Jordan Cox also boosts Sam Billings's fantasy value as he will bat one position higher up in the order. Currently, he is selected in only 10.1% of the teams, and given that he is also the keeper for the Invincibles, his differential potential for points in this match cannot be stated enough.
- Tom Curran or Gus Atkinson will likely return to the XI. You can pick either of the two depending on who plays in the XI as both are in the top 10 wicket takers at the Oval. They are also home players of Surrey, which gives them a lot of experience of playing at this ground.
- Daniel Worrall who is selected in just 34% f the teams is a very accurate bowler, who has been in good form with the ball in this competition and can be a direct ttreat for the Invincibles opener Jason Roy. Back him as a differential especially if the Spirit are bowling first.
- Despite its small boundaries, Kennington Oval is not an easy scoring ground. As a result, rely on all-rounders and bowlers rather than specialist batters.
