Oval Invincibles secured passage to the knockout rounds of The Hundred after a Jordan Cox fifty, securing a straight-forward victory over London Spirit at The Kia Oval. Cox, selected for the England Men's Test team, finished with a six to end up 61 not out from just 30 balls, taking his team to a nine-wicket victory. The result was almost settled by the halfway mark, with the already-eliminated Spirit able only to post 96 from the first inning.Michael Pepper, who started well for the visitors, hit an 18-ball 27 in the powerplay, but was bowled by Adam Zampa, casting the die. Spirit was 52 for 5, with Ollie Pope, Shimron Hetmyer, and Andre Russell back in the hutch. Zampa continued his fine tournament with 4 for 17. Ollie Stone, like Cox, in the England men's squad for the upcoming series against Sri Lanka, ran in hard as Spirit sought to defend 96, but it was a case of when and not if for the Invincibles, and Cox ended it with 37 balls to spare. The win means Sam Billings' side is guaranteed a place in the top three of the men's competition, with their final game against Trent Rockets deciding whether they will head straight to The Hundred Final on Sunday, August 18, or if they will need to progress through The Hundred Eliminator the day before.
