Wellington to have a better opening partnership than Central Districts

Central Districts and Wellington head into this game after contrasting start to the campaign. Wellington has one win in two matches thus far and are currently second on the table. On the other hand, Central Districts have struggled to make a mark this season and remain the only side yet to score a single point thus far.

What makes this tip so enticing is the fact in both games Central Districts have conceded a bigger opening partnership which makes us believe Wellington would have a better opening stand in the upcoming game.
