Pitch Report
Kennington Oval is a good pitch to bat. Oval Invincibles chased down the target of 149 with ease against Trent Rockets. The batters will look to score big runs in this do-or-die encounter as the team that wins the match will make it into the finals.
The captain that wins the toss would likely field first and then chase down the target accordingly. Both teams have good-quality batters that can make use of the conditions and would hope for a cracking encounter.
