LSW vs OVIW Team Previews
London Spirit Women
London Spirit has won 2 of the 3 matches it has played so far and is currently placed at the top of the points table, thanks to a good NRR. However, with 3 other teams, including the Oval Invincibles also in 4 points, there is no room for complacency.
Meg Lanning and Heather Knight have batted well for London, scoring 1 half-century each, and are also the highest run-scorers for the team. Lanning will be joined by Georgia Redmayne at the top of the order. The latter hasn’t reached her peak form yet. Danielle Gibson and Cordelia Griffith add heft to the middle order, while Deepti Sharma, who is back in the playing eleven after an excellent stint in the Asia Cup, will add depth to the batting.
She will join Sarah Glenn and Charlotte Dean in the spin department. Tara Norris, Eva Gray, and Sophie Munro will lead the pace attack. They have picked up 4 wickets among themselves.
London Spirit Women Playing 11
Meg Lanning, Georgia Redmayne, Heather Knight, Danielle Gibson, Deepti Sharma, Cordelia Griffith, Charlie Dean, Eva Gray, Sarah Glenn, Sophie Munro, Tara Norris.
Oval Invincibles Women
The Oval Invincibles have charted a journey similar to that of London Spirit and are coming into this contest on the back of a humiliating 82-run loss against Northern Superchargers.
Putting the loss aside, the Oval Invincibles have a strong playing eleven and will hope to bounce back in this match. Chamari Athapaththu, who recently won a historic Asia Cup title for her team, will join Lauren Winfield-Hill in the opening slot.
Athapaththu is a quality all-rounder who can influence the game with both, the bat and the ball. There are plenty of other all-rounders as well, including Marizanne Kapp, Paige Schofield, and Maddy Villiers. Alice Capsey is in excellent form with the bat and has scored 2 half-centuries in her 3 outings this season.
Coming to the bowling, Amanda Jade-Wellington is the leading wicket-taker for the team with 5 wickets, while Ryana Macdonald-Gay and Mady Villiers have picked up 3 wickets each.

Pitch and Conditions
The previous match played at the Lord’s Stadium saw a good batting surface. The pitch was firm, offering good bounce and carry, allowing the batters to play their shots naturally. The seamers will get some movement with the new ball but once the batters settle down, things will get easier for them. The team batting first will look to score anywhere between 140-150 runs.
The weather here is likely to be overcast with temperatures of around 22 degrees.
LSW vs OVIW Betting Tips
Both teams have shown good form this season and we can expect a good contest. The Oval Invincibles have a slight edge thanks to some quality all-rounders they possess. The Invincibles also have a stronger bowling unit.
Bet on the Oval Invincibles W to win.
Bonus Cricket Bets
The openers for the Oval Invincibles have put up single-digit partnerships in the last couple of matches. In comparison, the opening batters for London Spirit have performed better. We are therefore backing them to build a stronger partnership.
Lauren Winfield-Hill hasn’t been in the best of forms of late. She has been dismissed for a duck in each of her last two outings. Her highest score in the last 5 T20 innings is 12” and she is unlikely to play a big knock in this match.
