Mt. Maunganai will have bright and sunny weather with very less chances of rain interruptions in this match.
Bay Oval will have good pace and carry and we expect the batters to have an upper hand on this surface once the ball loses the shine. We expect the average scores to be around 250-260 runs in this match.
Both teams will look to bowl first here as the pitch might ease down as the match progresses.
Auckland have a strong batting line-up with quality top-6 players who can make big scores consistently. Their bowlers have leaked a few runs in their recent outings. Canterbury Districts too have a good batting line-up but are yet to make a fifty barring Chad Bowes. Their bowlers have bowled superbly and will look to continue their good work in this match too. We expect Canterbury to win in this match.
Canterbury will win the match
