THE LOWDOWN
AUCKLAND ACES
- Auckland Aces are coming off the back of a harsh DLS influenced defeat at the hands of Canterbury Kings, which now leaves them without a win in four Super Smash fixtures.
- The Aces were behind on DLS after just 5.2 overs of the Kings’ run chase when the heavens opened, but with only five overs needed to constitute a game, the weather left Auckland facing their unenviable fate.
CENTRAL STAGS
- Central Stags failed to get on the park last weekend at the Basin Reserve as their game against Wellington Firebirds was washed out.
- Before that washout, the Stags were riding the crest of a wave in this competition having won three matches on the bounce.
THE PREDICTION
Two teams in contrasting runs of form collide at Eden Park Outer Oval. Things aren’t going the way of Auckland Aces at the moment, who have had little luck but at the same time have not shown enough quality as individuals or a team unit. Central Stags though are functioning well and are proving especially destructive with the bat. The expectation is that they will wind up too strong for Auckland Aces and triumph in this game.
