Central Stags will lock horns with Canterbury Kings in the 9th match of the Super Smash 2023 at Pukekura Park in New Plymouth on December 30. Otago Volts has played two games so far where they are yet to win any and are placed fifth in the standing. Wellington Firebirds, on the other hand, has won one of their two games and is at the top of the table.

Central Stags had played against Northern Districts in their last encounter where Northern Districts won the toss and elected to field. Stags did not particularly have a great start, losing two wickets early in the game. The middle order performed better than the top order and the scoring rate was fled higher, especially with the sensational knock of Doug Bracewell. A grand target of 207 to the Northern Districts required a good start, but they could not get so. They kept losing wickets at regular intervals and so eventually lost the game by 56 runs.

Canterbury Kings squared off against Otago Volts in their last match where Otago Volts won the toss and elected to field. Canterbury started the innings and had scored two runs off three balls so far when rain interrupted the match. Due to excessive and persistent rain, the match could not be carried forward, and it ended in a draw.

The track at the Pukekura Park in New Plymouth is a batterā€™s paradise. With good seam and swing movement off the deck, pacers are expected to do well here. Batters, once settled, can look to score big and would be looking to exploit the conditions. Teams prefer to chase the total after winning the toss, with the average first innings score being 200.

Player Picks

7.5
C

Jayden Lennox CS | BOWL

Lennox has absolutely been on fire in this tournament with the ball in his hand. Picking up six wickets in just two games makes him a fantastic pick for captaincy roles.

8.5
C

Doug Bracewell CS | ALL

Bracewell has looked in really good touch in this tournament smashing 95 runs in two matches. He can be another fine choice to lead your fantasy side.

8.5

Ajaz Patel CS | BOWL

Ajaz has good control over the ball and he has shown so in this tournament as well. He has picked up three wickets bowling at an economy of 7.88.

9

Blair Tickner CS | BOWL

Tickner did a good job in scalping three wickets off two games although was a little expensive. He contributed well with the bat too scoring 22 runs.

8

Dane Cleaver CS | WK

Dane has scored 53 runs at a strike rate of 129.27 in two matches so far. He has been an excellent wicketkeeper as well and can fetch you hefty points.

8.5

Tom Bruce CS | BAT

Tom has played just one game but has made his impact in this duration. He has scored 16 runs and took away two wickets with the ball too.

Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team

8.5

Jack Boyle

CS | BAT

Jack has not been able to perform to the mark and it would be a wise decision to leave him out of your team.

9

Will Young

CS | BAT

Young had an awful last match and should not find a place in your fantasy team.
