OTG vs WEL Betting Tips
- Hamish Rutherford has hit 2 half-centuries in the competition so far and is our pick for Otago Volts’ highest run scorer in this match. Michael Rippon has 6 wickets in the 2021-22 Super Smash and is well worth backing as Otago Volts’ top wicket taker against Wellington Firebirds.
- Michael Bracewell is the leading run scorer for Wellington Firebirds in this tournament and is a strong choice for their highest run scorer against Otago Volts. Ben Sears has 5 wickets from his last two Super Smash games and is our tip for Wellington Firebirds’ top wicket taker in this game.
- Captain Michael Bracewell has been in excellent form with the bat and ball. He is our prediction for the Player of the Match Award.

Otago vs Wellington T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, Super Smash 2021
Otago Volts and Wellington Firebirds go head to head at the John Davies Oval, Queenstown for Tuesday’s Super Smash fixture. Otago Volts have won one, lost three and had one match called off so far in the tournament. Wellington Firebirds have won one and lost three from their four fixtures. Read on as we preview this group stage match. The game begins at 14:40 local time on Tuesday.
Otago Volts have lost their last two games and were well beaten by Canterbury Kings in their last match. They need to end this run as soon as possible if they are to challenge for the title.
After winning the 2020-21 Super Smash, Wellington Firebirds have had a very poor start to this campaign. However, there were signs in the defeat to Auckland Aces that they may well be turning their season around.

OTG vs WEL Pitch Report
Queenstown host their first game of this year’s Super Smash so we have no recent matches to base the pitch surface on. Historically, the seam and swing bowlers have the most success at this venue.

Mostly cloudy with a high of 16 degrees across this fixture.

Otago Volts Team News & Playing 11
OTG Team News
Josh Tasman-Jones made his first Super Smash appearance in the defeat against Canterbury Kings but made only 2 from 5 balls at the top of the order. The four bowlers returned similar figures in the game on Boxing Day so we expect to see the same XI in this match.
OTG Key Players
- Hamish Rutherford - The skipper has hit 22 boundaries and recorded 2 half-centuries from four innings so far. No other Otago Volts player has faced more than 100 balls in the competition.
- Max Chu - The keeper-batter has a top score of 12 in this tournament but is a far more accomplished player than his recent batting record shows.
- Michael Rippon - The left-arm wrist spinner is averaging a wicket every 3 overs in the 2021-22 Super Smash. He picked up the wicket of opener Ken McClure in the last game.
OTG Team Form
The Volts have won only one of their last five Super Smash games.
Otago Volts Predicted Playing 11
Hamish Rutherford (c), Josh Tasman-Jones, Neil Broom, Nick Kelly, Anaru Kitchen, Llew Johnson, Michael Rippon, Max Chu (wk), Angus McKenzie, Jacob Duffy, Matthew Bacon
Wellington Firebirds Team News & Playing 11
WEL Team News
The Firebirds are unrecognisable from the team who won last season’s Super Smash. Keeper-batter Finn Allen is one of the most underperforming players, last year he top scored across the whole tournament but is averaging under 20 so far this year. We expect the same XI to be given a final opportunity to bounce back in this game.
WEL Key Players
- Michael Bracewell - The skipper is averaging over 50 with the bat from number four although he has not had a huge amount of support from his fellow batters.
- Ben Sears - The young medium fast bowler has a striker rate of 12.5 from four games in Super Smash 2021.
- Logan van Beek - The Dutch medium-fast bowler has bowled 14 overs in the 2021-22 Super Smash but is yet to concede over 100 runs.
WEL Team Form
It’s three successive defeats for Wellington Firebirds who look very far away from the title winners we saw last season.
Wellington Firebirds Predicted Playing 11
Finn Allen (wk), Tim Robinson, Troy Johnson, Michael Bracewell (c), Nathan Smith, Jamie Gibson, Logan van Beek, Peter Younghusband, Ben Sears, Ollie Newton, Hamish Bennett
