The Hundred Women's 2024: Match 18, MNR-W vs OVI-W Match Prediction – Who will win today’s match between MNR-W vs OVI-W?

After two back-to-back wins, Manchester Originals (MNR-W) suffered their second defeat of the campaign in their last match against Northern Superchargers (OVI-W), losing by 46 runs. The Sophie Ecclestone-led side will challenge Oval Invincibles in the next match in Manchester. To remain in the fight for playoffs, they cannot afford to drop too many points.

Originals are currently sixth on the points table and a win over Oval will keep them safe in the hunt. They need to fix their batting unit which failed miserably in the last match. The top-order is filled with quality players in the form of Laura Wolvaardt, Beth Mooney and Emma Lamb, but the middle order isn’t as consistent. Meanwhile, Oval are currently fourth on the table after a tie against London Spirit in their last match.
