Districts vs Canterbury Prediction

Batting is going to depend mainly on Peter Fulton. He scored the most runs for the team in the Georgie Pie Super Smash 2015-16 and the onus will be on him to make Canterbury's scorecard look good. He made 48 in his last innings against Central Districts and he is likely to make a major contribution once again.

Canterbury will turn to their pace bowlers Andrew Ellis and Logan van Beek to pick up wickets and push the Districts on the back foot. Ellis was the standout performer for his side last season and he ended up being one of the top five bowlers in the tournament. van Beek claimed three wickets in his last game against the Districts and we predict him to deliver a similar performance here.

Districts vs Canterbury Betting Odds

Canterbury went a longer distance in the previous season than Central Districts. They made it to the playoffs and even beat the latter on their way. Canterbury will be taking the field on Sunday as favorites to win this match at 1.52 with betfair and 1.61 with bet365. Central Districts, despite playing on a home-like venue, are outsiders at 2.06 and 2.25 respectively.

Districts vs Canterbury Prediction

Central Districts have played a lot of white-ball cricket at this ground in recent times which will give them a home-ground kind of feeling when they face Canterbury here on Sunday. So having a better knowledge of the ground conditions will be a certain advantage for them. However, Canterbury will be the more confident side ahead of this match. They defeated the Districts last year and have won 10 out of the 16 times they have played against them in the past.

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