BPH vs OVI: Dream11 Team
· Wicket-keeper: Ben Duckett
· Batters: Tawanda Muyeye, Liam Livingstone, Will Jacks (Vice Captain)
· All-rounders: Sam Curran (Captain), Benny Howell, Dan Mousley
· Bowlers: Rashid Khan, Trent Boult, Adam Milne
Dream11 Prediction: Birmingham Phoenix have not been consistent with the bat. Only two batters have scored more than 50 runs for them in two games, which suggests how their batters are struggling. Meanwhile, both openers for Oval Invincibles are top run-getters this season. Then Rashid Khan, Sam Curran, and Jason Behrendorff are doing a great job in the bowling department.
But the Phoenix have been totally contrasting. Unless they get it right in both departments, they will be under pressure. But the current form and momentum are with the defending champion. They are in brilliant shape, and their deadly combination is the reason they are favorites to win this game.
