The head-to-head matchup between Southern Brave and Oval Invincibles is a tense two-two tie as the two sides square off in The Hundred 2023. The memories of Oval Invincibles’ five-wicket triumph against Southern Brave in their last game during the previous season add to the suspense, making this match significant for both sides.
Southern Brave leads the points table with a five-win and one-loss record. Their recent match against Phoenix demonstrated their tenacity, as they clinched a stunning three-run victory. Brave posted a competitive total of 132/4, led by Danny Wyatt’s 43-run innings and a combined bowling assault from Lauren Bell, Georgia Adams, and Anya Shrubsole, who each claimed two wickets.
Meanwhile, Oval Invincibles are in fifth place in the points table, having recorded two victories, three losses, along with one no-result. In their last match, they were defeated by Spirits by 21 runs. Despite Marizanne Kapp’s all-round effort of 30 runs and two wickets, as well as significant efforts from Ryana Macdonald-Gay, Sophia Smale, and Mady Villiers, who each took two wickets, the Invincibles were unable to win a victory.
