THE LOWDOWN
CENTRAL STAGS
AUCKLAND ACES
THE PREDICTION
When comparing the results of these two teams so far, Central Stags have enjoyed the better start to the tournament. A crucial advantage for them is the experience of players such as Ross Taylor and Dane Cleaver among their top order, not to mention the confidence boost of having lower order players capable of rescuing them with the bat when it trouble, as Clarkson and Bracewell did against the Brave. The latter point in particularly could really benefit them against Auckland, whose bowlers know they face a tough task to stem the flow of runs on what will likely be another good batting track at Pukekura Park. Therefore, backing Central Stags to overcome the Aces has to be favoured.
