Thunder vs Central Sparks Betting Tips

Central Sparks to score low before 1st dismissal (@Parimatch)

Central Sparks are having a disappointing campaign in the competition right now. Central Sparks have lost four games in a row and need to break out of the losing pattern. Eve Jones and Chloe Brewer opened for the team before. Charis Pavely replaced Brewer in the opening position but could not make any difference in the game. The team posted the scores of 26, 20, 35, 0 & 7 runs before 1st dismissal. Eve Jones (22.00), Charis Pavely (1.00) and Chloe Brewer (13.25) are not doing very well and average pretty low in the tournament. Thunder would look to exploit it and pick an early wicket in the next game against Central Sparks. That said, you should put your money on Central Sparks to lose an early wicket in the next game.

Thunder vs Central Sparks Toss Prediction

The wicket at Old Trafford is expected to provide an equal contest between the bat and ball. Batters will need to apply themselves on the wicket before playing the big shots. The skipper winning the toss might prefer to bowl first and chase the total later on.

Weather Report

The day will be a cloudy day on May 8. The temperature will hover around 19 degree Celsius. There is no rain predicted on the day of the game.

Predicted Playing XI

Central Sparks Recent Form

Central Sparks began their campaign with a win but lost every game after that. If they bat well, the bowlers disappoint and vice versa. The team needs to deliver a more promising performance in the next game.

Thunder vs Central Sparks Betting Odds

Thunder went against the Blaze in the last game. Batting first, the Blaze smashed 174 runs for the loss of all their wickets. Hannah Jones shined again with 3 wickets to her name. Mahika Gaur also took 3 wickets in the game. Chasing the target, the team had a fantastic start from the bats of Seren Smale (58) and Emma Lamb (44). It became tough to conquer the target once the openers lost their wickets. The team somehow dragged them to the finish line, winning the game by a wicket. The team is doing well with their bowling but the batters have to maintain a good form coming into the next game.

Central Sparks are having a poor season. They met with Northern Diamonds in the last game. Batting first, Northern Diamonds were all out at 216. The bowlers of the Sparks did extremely well and made it easy for the batters to cash in the win. Upon chasing, things went horribly wrong for the team. Eve Jones (65) and Abigail Freeborn (49) batted pretty well but the rest lost their wicket very early in the game. The team reached 215 runs before losing out on all their wickets. Central Sparks lost the game by 1 run. Central Sparks will face Thunder in the next game and have to be alert while playing their fierce bowlers.

Favorites to win

Thunder

In the last five contests between the sides, both the sides have won two games each while one of the fixtures ended up in a tie. Central Sparks are doing very poorly in the competition. They have failed miserably and could not make a difference with their squad this season. The Thunder have a much better team on paper. That said, Thunder will be going in as match favourites in the next game.
