Auckland Aces vs Otago Volts Prediction

Michael Bracewell hit three fifties for Otago last season and was among the tournament's top three batsmen. He is going to be the key in their batting lineup this year as well. Anaru Kitchen had struck a 22-ball 45 against Auckland last year and the team will back him for a decent contribution on Sunday.

Warren Barnes and Jacob Duffy will be the main weapons in Otago's bowling lineup for this match. Both the seamers took 15 wickets each last year and Auckland will be wary of them. Barnes ran through Auckland's top-order in last year's final and we predict him to take the most wickets against them in this match.

Auckland vs Otago Betting Odds

Auckland Aces won the tournament last year, defeating Otago Volts by 20 runs in the final. They also had the better of them in the league stage as well which makes them short favorites to win this game at 1.59 with betfair and 1.61 with bet365. Otago Volts make a valuable bet at 2.22 and 2.25 respectively.

Auckland vs Otago Prediction

Auckland Aces and Otago Volts are coming as two of the stronger teams of the competition. Both have given top-notch performances in recent times and we expect this match to be a cracker of a contest. Auckland have been the most successful of all the teams so far with four title wins in the bag. The defending champions have beaten Otago 10 out of the 20 times they have played against them in the past while losing only on seven occasions. Though Otago are an equally competitive side with plenty of talented players on their roster, Auckland will go in as favorites to win this match.

Final Verdict: We recommend betting on Auckland Aces to win this match.
