Otago Sparks need a win to qualify for the playoffs. The team has played good cricket, winning five out of the nine games. They defeated Central Hinds by 6 wickets in the last game after they chased the target of 108 in 17th over.
Suzie Bates has been unstoppable in the tournament and has scored 390 runs in 9 games. Also, Bella James is a good batter to have. She has been inconsistent but can come good. Same goes with Polly Inglis, who has been out of form but can bounce back.
Emma Black, Linsey Smith and Eden Carson will be main bowlers. The players have done well consistently throughout the tournament. Black has taken 13 wickets in the tournament while Smith and Carson have taken seven and nine wickets.
Otago Sparks have been brilliant so far but the concern for them is that barring Suzie Bates, other batters have not performed.

This is a very important game for Northern Brave as well. In fact, the match is a virtual knockout. The winner of the game will play the Eliminator against Central Hinds. Brave has been average in the tournament, winning four and losing four. They defeated Auckland Hearts by 39 runs in last game.
Chamari Attapattu, Caitlin Gurrey and Eimear Richardson will be key batter. Attapattu has been the best batter for Brave, scoring 164 runs in 7 games. Gurrey has also scored 164 runs for the team. Richardson has played a couple of handy knocks in the tournament.
The bowling will rest on Marama Downes, Chamari Attapattu and Jess Watkin. Downes has taken 14 wickets in nine games and bagged a fifer in last game. Attapattu also bagged two wickets in last game as has taken nine wickets. Jess Watkin has also been good with eight wickets.
The team has blown hot and cold. The concern for them will be that barring Attapattu and Caitlin Gurrey, others have looked ordinary.

Otago are favourites to win. Suzie Bates has been sensational for Otago and her form makes a different. The team also have a better bowling attack. Brave too have a good team but the batting looks a little weak as barring Chamari Attapattu, others have not done well. For us, Otago Sparks are favourites.
