Venue | Fitzherbert Park, Palmerston North |
This will be the first game for Central Stags in Super Smash 2022. They had an ordinary season last year and could only manage 4 wins in 10 games and thus could not make it to the playoffs.
Meanwhile, Wellington started their 2022 Super Smash with a win over Otago. Wellington posted 152-8 in 20 overs, courtesy of a 67 by Ravin Ravindra before the bowlers helped the team win by 8 runs after restricting Otago 5o 144-7.
We expect the pitch to favour the batters. The new ball will come on nicely onto the bat and with short boundaries, the match is set for a high-scoring game.
The weather will be bright and sunny, with temperatures ranging between 22 and 12 degrees. There is no threat of rain.

Bowlers | Adam Milne, Seth Rance, Brett Randell |
Finn Allen got off to a great start in the last game and scored 21 runs in just 11 balls. He could not continue further and was dismissed by Michael Rae. Finn looked in good touch and can be backed to play a decent knock in the coming game.
Ross Taylor will feature for Central Stags. He has retired from international cricket so he can play with freedom without any burden. We expect Taylor to have a very good tournament.
Rachin Ravindra is a good option to have. He is a very good all-rounder. In the last game, he scored 67 runs and even though he didn't pick up a wicket with the ball, he bowled really well.
Seth Rance is a bowler we feel can do well. He is a very clever bowler who is known to be a specialist in this format.
Adam Milne got his Super Smash campaign off to a good start after he bowled a spell of 2-24 and helped Wellington beat Otago.
