ND vs WELL Pitch Report

Mt. Maunganai 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 160-180 runs in this match.

Toss: To Bat

Both teams will look to bat first here as the pitch might spice up as the match progresses. 

Wellington have a strong batting line-up with quality top-6 players who are making good scores consistently. Their bowlers have been on the money and are hunting as a pack. Northern knights too have a good batting line-up but are missing a few players due to national commitments. Their bowlers have fared better and will look to continue their good work in this match too. We expect Wellington to win in this match. 

Wellington will win the match
