Oval Invincibles Women take on Welsh Fire Women in the 16th match of The Hundred Women 2025 at Kennington Oval in London. Both teams are eager to strengthen their position mid-season in this evening clash. The surface should suit batters and the weather is likely to remain clear setting up a good contest.
Oval Invincibles enter this fixture with renewed confidence after a strong win. Players like Meg Lanning provide reliability at the top, while Marizanne Kapp offer key all-round capabilities. Their bowling unit, featuring Amanda-Jade Wellington will be crucial to controlling Welsh Fire’s attacking lineup and maintaining their momentum.
Welsh Fire are searching for their first victory and hoping key players can turn the tide. Tammy Beaumont’s experience is vital, alongside Hayley Matthews who could influence both batting and bowling. Sophia Dunkley adds depth to the batting order, and Jess Jonassen’s left-arm spin could make a difference if Fire want to restrict Invincibles and break their losing streak

The Oval Pitch Report
The Oval pitch is known for being a good surface for batting in shorter formats. While pacers might get some early assistance with the new ball, the pitch generally settles, allowing batters to play their shots freely. An average first-innings score of around 160 in The Hundred suggests that setting a good total is achievable, but the ground also has a history of successful run-chases. Teams winning the toss will likely choose to bowl first to take advantage of the conditions and chase under the lights.
