Toss
Going by the ground’s previous records, majority of the matches played here have been won by the team that batted second. The ground is also not the best one to get high scores, so the team that wins the toss is recommended to bowl first.
Central Stags Team News & Playing 11
Team News
There are no major changes expected in the current squad of Central Districts and no injuries have been reported to any of the players of the team.
Key Players
Central Districts’ batting side has performed well in the one match where they got to show their batting skills. George Worker, Tom Bruce, Will Young and Doug Bracewell batted very well and together, the side put up a score of 198. It will be good if they push themselves even more to score even better against Otago. The bowling side, on the other hand, has not got a chance yet to showcase its full potential. In the few overs where the team was allowed to bowl, Ben Wheeler and Doug Bracewell took some wickets. Hopefully, people will get to see the bowlers perform in this match.
Recent Form
Central Districts have played only one match in this season, which they won by D/L method, and the bowling side didn’t get to perform. It is very early to analyse the potential and performance of the players, but hopefully the batsmen will come to the team’s rescue in this match.
Central Districts Predicted XI
-
Ben Smith, George Worker, Will Young (c), Tom Bruce, Dane Cleaver (wk), Jeremy Clarkson, Ryan McCone, Doug Bracewell, Seth Rance, Marty Kain, Ben Wheeler.
Wellington Firebirds Team News & Playing 11
Team News
None of the players have been injured yet, so no major changes are expected in this match against Central Districts.
Key Players
Tom Blundell was the key batsmen for Wellington in their first match against Northern Districts. With the help of Hamish Marshall and Michael Papps, they can score well against Central Districts and work to put up a respectable score on the board. The bowlers have performed better than the batsmen, and are expected to take more than a few important wickets in this match. Jade Dernbach, Brent Arnel, and Luke Woodcock were the top performers, but all the bowlers in the side pitched in to take wickets and limit the score of the opponent team, and can hopefully do the same in this match as well.
Recent Form
Wellington had an average start in the season, and will be working hard to increase their performance graph. Both batting and bowling sides are strong enough to play better than they have and the team will be expected to work together to win.
Wellington Predicted XI
-
Hamish Marshall, Michael Papps (c), Stephen Murdoch, Luke Ronchi, Tom Blundell (wk), Michael Pollard, Luke Woodcock, Jeetan Patel, Jade Dernbach, Hamish Bennett, Brent Arnel.
Central Districts vs Wellington Head To Head
This is the first time when Central Districts will be playing against Wellington in this season and will be interesting to see how things turn out for both teams, as it is very early in the season to be picking favourites. Both teams have been each other’s opponents twice in the last season, where they won one match each.
Central Districts vs Wellington Prediction
Both teams have given average performance up till now, and with a few games pending for both, it will be hard to choose a team based on wins or losses. Out of the games played, Wellington look to be the stronger team in comparison to Central Districts and can hopefully defeat them.
Wellington have a stronger bowling side than Central Districts and we predict them to win this match.
