This article will talk about the probable XIs for both teams and continue with the Dream11 predictions and the winning fantasy team for Match 13 of “The Hundred” between Northern Superchargers and Oval Invincibles that is scheduled to take place on the 31st of July 2021.
The Northern Superchargers team who are yet to win a game in this edition of The Hundred will take on the Oval Invincibles in their respective fourth game at Leeds. The Invincibles have won a game and are placed 4th at this point.
The last match of Northern Superchargers was washed out due to rain against Manchester Originals. They will aim for a complete game against Oval Invincibles and open their winning account in this inaugural season for The Hundred 2021.
Similarly, Oval Invincibles also faced a washed-out game against London Spirit in their last match. They have already won one match in this tournament so they will aim to win another match and put one step ahead in this ongoing tournament.
Match Details
Venue: Headingley, Leeds
Pitch and Weather: Headingley generally offers a batting surface as we have seen in the opening match of Superchargers. The batsman will enjoy this surface as batsmen with plenty of fours and sixes are expected in this match. However, the pacers will also get assistance from the surface with the new ball. The average score in this match will be around 160. The weather of Headingley will be cloudy during the match hours like a couple of showers can interrupt the game.
Date & Time: July 31, 11 PM IST
Probable Playing XIs
Both the team’s last game was washed out due to rain so they are unlikely to make any changes in the playing XI. However, some of the International players went back for the Test series so new players will get their chance in both teams.
Ben Stokes can be replaced by Matty Potts for Northern Superchargers. On the other hand, Sam Curran can be replaced by Nathan Sowter.
