Strongest Team on Paper
I expect Oval Invincibles Women to continue their sheer dominance in The Hundred 2023 Women’s Competition as they are the defending Champions and the only team in the Women’s Hundred Competition who have won the title not once but twice.
The Oval Invincibles Women have retained several key players from their championship-winning team in the previous season. The team boasts of some of the best all-rounders in the world, such as Marizanne Kapp and Dane van Niekerk from South Africa, and Suzie Bates from New Zealand.
They have a formidable batting lineup, with Lauren Winfield-Hill opening the innings and Suzie Bates and Dane van Niekerk anchoring the middle order. The team also has a strong bowling attack, with Marizanne Kapp and Tash Farrant leading the pace attack, while Mady Villiers and Ryana MacDonald-Gay provide the spin options. However, the team’s weak link could be their lack of depth in the batting department, which could be exposed if the top order fails to fire.
