Finn Allen is in tremendous form. He has scored over 100 points in the last 3 consecutive matches. He is a must pick and a great option for Captain.

Match Details:

The 17th match of the Super Smash 2010-21 will be played between the Canterbury Kings and Wellington Firebirds at the Hagley Oval, Christchurch.

This match is scheduled to start at 03:40 AM IST (10:10 AM GMT) (11:10 PM Local Time) and will be streamed live on FanCode.

Preview:

Canterbury Kings will take on Wellington Firebirds in the 17th match of the Sumer Smash 2020-21. This will be Canterbury’s second game in as many days and might be tired. Having won their last game, their morale must be high, and playing at home must give them enough self-belief to overcome fatigue and take on a strong looking Wellington side.

The unbeaten Wellington side, on the other hand, would be looking to take advantage of a tired Canterbury team. They might as well bat first after winning the toss. They have been dominant throughout this season and would look to continue their unbeaten run.

CK vs WF Weather Report for Match 17:

The weather will be partly cloudy with only a 2 percent chance of rain. The temperature will be around 19 degrees Celsius.

Pitch Report:

It seems a balanced track at Christchurch. Barring the first game, the other two games haven’t been high scoring and it’s tough to score freely against spinners.

CK vs WF Top Picks for Today’s Dream11 Match:

Daryll Mitchell has been in great form both with bat and ball. He scored a brilliant 69 in the last game and also picked up two wickets.

Cole McConchie, the Canterbury captain, finally came good with the bat scoring an unbeaten half-century against the Northern Knights.

Finn Allen scored 92 not out in the last game to take his team home. He has amassed 322 runs at a staggering strike rate of 197.54.

James Neesham, the star NZ all-rounder, has failed miserably with the bat but has made up for it with the ball. He has picked up 8 wickets in 4 innings at an economy of just 6.66.

Michael Bracewell might sometimes roll his arm and pick some crucial wickets. He can be one of the multiplier options in grand league teams.

Ed Nuttall got just one over in the previous game but he’s a brilliant bowler if he gets more number of overs. He is one of the bowlers to watch out for.
