CANT vs WELL Match Prediction & Analysis
This will be the opening fixture for both these teams in the 2023 season of the Ford Trophy. Canterbury will look to continue their exceptional 2022 campaign this time around as well. They dominated the league, however, lost the finals.
Wellington on the other hand did not have a great season last year. They finished bottom of the table losing 5 matches while winning only 3. Wellington will want to put that in the past and improve their performances this year.

Luke Georgeson was the top scorer for the team with his composed 52 run innings up the order. He was the only batter who performed for the team as everyone else buckled down under pressure.
The bowling could not help the matters much as the target was chased down rather convincingly by the opposition batsmen. Wellington managed to pick up only 3 wickets in the match and all of them were taken by Logan van Beek. No bowler apart from him got any luck with the ball.
