Trent Rockets v Oval Invincibles: Prediction, Tips and Odds

The Hundred is nearing the end of its regular season and in the men's competition it is Oval Invincibles who have stood out above the rest.

They are already through to the knockout stages of the competition, having collected 12 points from their seven matches and one last win on Wednesday would see them through to the final as group winners.

And things are looking good for the Londoners given that their final opponents, Trent Rockets, have already been eliminated from the competition.

Most recently the Rockets lost by six wickets to Birmingham Phoenix, having been skittled out for just 118, so the Invincibles should sniff blood in this contest at Trent Bridge.

Trent Rockets v Oval Invincibles betting tips and predictions

Oval Invincibles to win - 8/11

The Invincibles are understandably on the short side in the betting for this match, but they still represent a bit of value to win.

They have been a cut above every team in the division with six wins from their seven matches and a net run-rate of +1.072 is significantly better than the rest of the teams in the competition.

They should be fancied to go the distance in The Hundred and there is unlikely to be a slip-up against the Rockets.

The Nottingham outfit have lost four of their seven contests this season, including a six-wicket hammering by the Phoenix last time out.

Just two Rockets batters reached double figures in that contest with extras finishing as their third highest-scorer.

And it is fair to say the Rockets have little incentive given they are already eliminated, while they will also be without key bowler Rashid Khan, so an Invincibles win looks likely.

Jordan Cox top match batter - 13/2

There are plenty of players who have stood out for the Invincibles this season, but one individual who has risen to the occasion more recently is number-three batter Jordan Cox.

Neither Will Jacks nor Dawid Malan, who open the batting for the Invincibles, have set The Hundred alight recently, but Cox has stepped up.

He struck 46 not out against Southern Brave before an unbeaten 61 against London Spirit and those scores have taken his average in the competition to a healthy 50.

He is the form batter heading into this final league fixture and, at 13/2, he looks overpriced to be the top batter in the match.

Sam Cook top Trent Rockets bowler - 9/2

The Rockets will have to make do without Rashid Khan for their final match in The Hundred this season after the Afghan leg-spinner picked up a hamstring injury.

That is a major blow given that he is the Rockets' leading wicket-taker in the competition with nine scalps this season and someone else will need to step up in his absence.

Imad Wasim is an obvious candidate with eight wickets to his name, but he is not getting any younger and was poor with the ball last time out.

Instead, Sam Cook could be of interest to be his team's top wicket-taker at 9/2.

The Essex seamer has taken seven wickets in as many innings in The Hundred this season and can impress again.
