LNS vs OVI Dream11 Prediction: London Spirit vs Oval Invincibles Fantasy Team, The Hundred 2025 Match 1

The Hundred 2025 launches with a thrilling men's clash between London Spirit and Oval Invincibles on August 5 at Lord's Cricket Ground, starting at 11:00 PM IST, broadcast live on SonyLIV and FanCode in India.

This opening fixture of the 27-day tournament, featuring 34 matches, promises a fierce London derby, with the final set for August 31.

London Spirit Men, led by Kane Williamson, aim to reverse their lackluster 2024 campaign, where they finished second-last. Bolstered by David Warner's aggressive batting and Liam Dawson's all-round spin (10 wickets, 120+ strike rate in 2024), they seek a strong start. Oval Invincibles Men, captained by Sam Billings, are two-time champions (2021, 2023) and boast a 5-0 head-to-head record against Spirit. Will Jacks' explosive top-order batting, Sam Curran's all-round flair, and Rashid Khan's world-class spin (15 wickets in 2024) make them favorites.

Lord's pitch, balanced but spinner-friendly, typically yields an average first-innings score of 172. Invincibles' depth and experience give them an edge.
