With six players in my team already from the Manchester Originals, I have to fill up the rest of the spots with players from the Invincibles. In their only meeting in the tournament, OVI absolutely thrashed the Originals, winning by 94 runs, and they'd want to dominate their opponents in a similar fashion in this final.
With two batting slots to fill, I'm going with Will Jacks and Jason Roy as my choices, especially after seeing the MAN bowlers struggle to dismiss the Southern Brave openers in the Eliminator. The Curran brothers are must-haves and also become excellent captaincy options, with Tom Curran especially impressing every time he plays.
Lastly, I have a wide range of players to choose from when it comes to the bowlers' slots, but I'm backing Adam Zampa to continue his good run of form. Nathan Sowter and Gus Atkinson wouldn't be bad picks either.
Dream11 Multi-Match Fantasy: The Hundred Men's 2023: Best Fantasy XI for Match 34 - OVI vs MAN: Team Selection and Captaincy Tips
Players playing in Match 34: Jos Buttler (WK) (MAN), Jamie Overton (ALL) (MAN), Calvin Harrison (BOWL) (MAN), Paul Walter (ALL) (MAN), Max Holden (BAT) (MAN), Jason Roy (BAT) (OVI), Will Jacks (BAT) (OVI), Tom Curran (ALL) (OVI), Adam Zampa (BOWL) (OVI), Sam Curran (ALL) (OVI), and Joshua Little (BOWL) (MAN).
With the Oval Invincibles involved in this game, captaincy should be a little easier as they always provide plenty of viable picks to choose from. Tom Curran, Sam Curran, Will Jacks, Jos Buttler, and Paul Walter are the names I'm currently considering for captaincy. I'm likely to go with one of Tom and Sam Curran and the in-form Jos Buttler.
