Venue and Pitch

Trent Bridge in Nottingham has hosted 15 matches in the Men's Hundred with the team batting first winning 10 matches and the team chasing 5. Surprisingly, the captain who has won the toss has still elected to field first on 11 occasions! The toss is very unlucky at Trent Bridge with the team calling it right winning just three encounters for a win probability of only 20 percent.

The average team total batting first is 149 while the average score chasing is 138. The wicket at Nottingham has a bit in it both for the pacers and slower bowlers. It is not a high-scoring venue with only four totals in excess of 170.

MATCH PREDICTION

The Oval Invincibles start favourites with a 70% chance of winning. They have been the best team in the tournament and have form and momentum with them.
