Top Picks FOR OVI vs LNS DREAM 11 MATCH:
Oval Invincibles:
Jason Roy
Roy has been in good form for England during their international games this year. But, he also has struggled against India and South Africa. He played a knock of 45 runs against the Proteas last week. So, the Oval Invincibles will be a lot more dependent on Roy this season.
Will Jacks
He is also in good form currently and has amassed 146 runs in just 7 matches in the last season of The Hundred. Just last month, in a County fixture, Jacks scored a 150 runs and would also like to replicate the same performance in this season.
London Spirit:
Glenn Maxwell
Maxwell is also a vastly experienced franchise cricket player having played in almost all the leagues around the world. Currently, he will be available for London Spirit for their first five games this season. Unfortunately, he had to sit out the entire last season due to an injury. He also played well against Sri Lanka this year in the ODI series where he made 160 runs and picked up 5 wickets in the five matches.
Nathan Ellis
Ellis is also a good player in franchise cricket. A lot will be dependent on him when he bowls for the London Spirit in their first match against the Invincibles.
Player to avoid FOR OVI vs LNS DREAM 11 MATCH:
Mohammad Hasnain
The Pakistani pacer has last played a game in the PSL in January 2022 and also has a single County game to his credit in which he took only 2 wickets in the two innings. So, he will be a risky choice for the Oval Invincibles.
