The Hundred 2021 has gotten off to a fantastic start and only one match separates the top-6 teams at the moment. This means the position on the table can change in an instant and teams could find themselves in or out of the qualification zone in the matter of a couple of matches.
Oval Invincibles and Birmingham Phoenix, the two teams playing this match have both won two out of the four matches that they have played. Oval Invincibles have lost only one match, though, as compared to the two by Birmingham since one match was washed out.
Match prediction and cricket betting tips for Birmingham Phoenix vs Oval Invincibles, the Hundred 2021. The match is going to be played at Edgbaston, Birmingham on the 4th of August 2021.
We have been waiting for the strong Birmingham Phoenix batting to fire for quite some time now and that finally happened in the previous match that they played. They chased down 145 in just 74 balls against the Trent Rockets, thanks to some brilliant performances from Will Smeed, Finn Alen, Moeen Ali, and Liam Livingstone.
It was the best-case scenario for Birmingham with over 9 sixes hit all four of its top-order batsmen scoring at a strike rate of well over 150.
The Total Sixes in the Match betting market is available for sixes over or under 10.5 in the match. With so much power in the Phoenix team, this tally could be breached in one inning alone. Definitely a bet worth considering.
We also think the bowling attack for Birmingham could do very well in this match. Imran Tahir, Liam Livingstone, Benny Howell, and Patrick Brown are all excellent in T20 cricket and especially if the pitch offers some turn.
Adam Milne and Tom Helm will round out the bowling.
We think a bet on Patrick Brown or Benny Howell to be the top-bowler for Birmingham Phoenix in this match is not a bad option at all.
Finn Allen, Will Smeed, Moeen Ali, Liam Livingstone, Miles Hammond, Christopher Benjamin, Benny Howell, Adam Milne, Thomas Helm, Patrick Brown, Imran Tahir.
The Oval Invincibles won quite convincingly in the previous match against Welsh Fire. Their bowling attack was spectacular and did not give the opposition batsmen any freebies. Reece Topley, Saqib Mahmood, Tom Curran, Sunil Narine, Tabraiz Shamsi, and Will Jacks are all very good!
Any one player can have a great game and so we would advise staying away from the top bowler for the Oval Invincibles betting market in this match. Instead, Betway offers a To Take +2 Wickets betting market which is currently offering Tabraiz Shamsi at 2.25. That is certainly worth considering since Birmingham Phoenix is not going to hold back against Shamsi.
Jaso Roy is the danger man for Oval Invincibles at the top. He has not quite got going in the Hundred 2021 and we are not comfortable betting on him just yet. Will Jacks looked in great touch before getting out and we think a ‘To Hit a Six’ bet on him is definitely a good idea.
Sunil Narine, Sam Billings, Colin Ingram, and Laurie Evans all played well in the previous match to give the Oval Invincibles a very well-rounded team as well.

The team that wins the toss could choose to field first. We have some spin in Birmingham in previous matches but the ease with which Birmingham Phoenix chased down its total against Trent Rockets is going to influence the decision for sure.

The weather forecast for Birmingham is quite good and we should be able to get a full, uninterrupted match to enjoy. The pitch is going to be good for batting with some spin on offer as the second inning progresses. There is always some bounce in the surface that helps the batsmen play big-shots but the large boundaries help even the field a little.
A score of around 140 is the least the teams batting first will be aiming for. We could even see something around 160.

We are going to bet against the favorite in this match and back the Oval Invincibles to win. It has a superb bowling attack that we think can ask tough questions of Birmingham Phoenix. Its batting lineup is also a bit more dependable than Birmingham’s even though it is not as powerful.
Bet on Oval Invincibles to win.
Finn Allen may have scored some runs in the previous match but he has been out cheaply in every other game apart from that. We are banking on the impressive Oval Invincibles getting an early wicket as well as scoring some runs at the top of the order as well.
Sam Billings has 92 runs from three innings and is in pretty good form. He also played a match-winning role in the previous match. The biggest risk to him not being able to score over 18.5 is that he may not get to face enough deliveries. Still, we think the reward is worth the risk here.
Birmingham Phoenix alone hit 9 sixes in its inning in the previous match it played. The Oval Invincibles has hit 21 sixes in total during the Hundred season so far. These are two prolific six-hitting teams that could easily go past the tally of 10.5
