THE PREDICTION
Otago Volts will be looking to bounce back from their six-wicket defeat at the hands of Wellington Firebirds as they battle Central Stags, who in contrast, contested a hard-fought draw against Canterbury in the match that saw the Stags dominate throughout. The key for Greg Hay’s side is whether they can take the 20 wickets needed to achieve their first victory here, with Blair Tickner spearheading the Otago bowling attack. Based on the opening round of fixtures, Central Stags look to have a slightly stronger batting line-up than Otago Volts and providing they can repeat their performance with the willow against Canterbury, then they will be in a strong position here. A little more potency with the ball and no significant interference weather wise should see Central Stags emerge victorious here.
