Oval Invincibles is a franchise 100-ball cricket side based in South London. The team represents the historic counties of Surrey and Kent in the newly founded The Hundred competition, which took place for the first time during the 2021 English and Welsh cricket season. Both the men's side and the women's side plays at The Oval.
History
The announcement of the new eight-team men's and women's tournament series in 2019 was not without controversy, with the likes of Virat Kohli criticising the England and Wales Cricket Board for pursuing a shift away from Test cricket, while others argued the format should have followed the established and successful Twenty20 format. The ECB however decided it needed a more unique format to draw crowds.
In August 2019, the side announced that Australian coach Tom Moody would be the men's team's first coach, while former England Women player Lydia Greenway was appointed coach of the Women's team.
The inaugural Hundred draft took place in October 2019 and saw the Invincibles claim Sam Curran as their headline men's draftee, and Laura Marsh as the women's headliner. They were joined by England internationals Tom Curran and Jason Roy for the men's team, while Fran Wilson joined Marsh in the women's side.
The Oval Invincibles have a strong and experienced squad of players, including some of the best cricketers from around the world. The team is led by Sam Billings, an English wicket-keeper batsman who has played for the national team. Other key players in the team include Jason Roy, a hard-hitting opening batsman, Sunil Narine, a spin bowler from the West Indies, and Saqib Mahmood, a fast bowler from England.
The team is coached by Tom Moody, a former Australian cricketer and coach who has a wealth of experience in the game. Moody has previously coached teams like Sri Lanka, Western Australia, and Sunrisers Hyderabad in the Indian Premier League.
The Oval Invincibles have a strong fan base and are expected to be one of the top teams in The Hundred. The team plays its home matches at The Oval, which has a capacity of over 25,000 spectators. The team's colors are blue and gold, and its logo features a lion, which is a symbol of strength and courage.
