Top Picks for OVI vs BPH Dream11 Match:

Top Picks – Batters

Will Jacks:

The in-form batter smashed 108 runs off 48 balls against the Southern Brave in the third match and 81 runs off 45 balls against Welsh Fire in the second match of this season. He is leading the scoring charts for the Invincibles with 201 runs at a strike rate of 187.85 so far.

Will Smeed:

The young English opener smashed 101 runs off just 50 balls against the Southern Brave in the second match of the season but has failed for a big knock in the last three matches. He scored only 15 runs off eight balls against the Superchargers in the last match.

Top Picks – Bowlers

Kane Richardson:

The right-arm Aussie pacer has taken seven wickets in just four matches at an impressive economy rate of 8.05 so far. Kane took two wickets and scored nine runs against the Superchargers in the last match.

Sunil Narine:

The veteran Caribbean all-rounder is struggling for big knocks with the bat but has been exceptional with the ball this season. He has taken nine wickets in just five matches while conceding just 100 runs in 100 balls so far. He scored 23 runs off 19 balls and took a wicket against the Rockets in the last match.

Top Pick – All-rounder

Moeen Ali:

The Pheonix skipper is leading by an example this season with 115 runs and four wickets. He smashed 52 runs off 28 balls against the Rockets and took two wickets against the Superchargers while conceding just 13 runs in the last match.

Top Pick – Wicketkeeper

Jordan Cox:

The English wicketkeeper batter got a chance to bat in just three matches this season but still, he has scored 148 runs at an average of 74 and a strike rate of 160.86 so far. He will be a clear wicketkeeping pick ahead of the likes of Sam Billings and Matthew Wade.

OVI vs BPH Risky Captaincy Choices:

Matthew Wade:

The Australian wicketkeeper-batter didn’t make it to the squad for the matches against New Zealand and Zimbabwe. He will play all the remaining in The Hundred 2022. He has scored 65 runs in four matches so far, including a 38-run knock against Welsh Fire.

Sam Curran:

The 24-year-old all-rounder has been sensational in the Hundred 2022 tournament with 132 runs and five wickets, including a wicket and 27 runs in the last match against the Rockets. But he has failed to take more than a wicket in any match this season and scored 30-plus only on one occasion so far.

Players you should avoid:

Jason Roy:

The experienced English batter continues to struggle in the Hundred 2022. He scored 20 runs off 17 balls in the last match against Trent Rockets but managed only 10 runs in the first four matches this season.
