THE LOWDOWN
NORTHERN BRAVE
- Northern Brave put up the highest team score of this season’s Super Smash since January 14th after racking up 172/5 batting first against Auckland Aces.
- Tom Blundell’s 70 led the Brave to such as a score and a potent bowling display saw them take all ten Auckland wickets for 135 in response, securing a 37-run victory.
WELLINGTON FIREBIRDS
- Unfortunately for Wellington Firebirds, their winless run in the men’s Super Smash was extended to five games by Canterbury Kings this past Monday.
- The Firebirds were bowled out for 148 with four balls remaining of their innings, which turned out to be costly as Canterbury snuck home with one ball to spare in response.
THE PREDICTION
Northern Brave boost all the tools to inflict further punishment upon Wellington Firebirds, particularly with the bat. When you also take into account the regularity that Wellington are currently losing wickets in T20 cricket, it’s hard to see them putting together a partnership capable of taking the game away from the Brave, whether they be batting first or second. The firepower among within that Northern Brave top order makes them worth backing to overcome Wellington.
