Auckland vs Central Districts Chance of Winning
Central Districts had a torrid start to the campaign as they had one win in the first six games. But they have managed to turn things around as they beat Otago and Wellington in the last two games and with 16 points are currently third on the table, level on points with Canterbury who occupy the fourth spot on the table. In the last game they beat in-form Wellington and are right in the mix to make the playoffs this term.

Auckland vs Central Districts Prediction & Betting Tips 2023
With the absence of first choice openers for Auckland, George Worker got the call up in the last game and once again he failed to grab the opportunity in the last game against Otago which ended up as a one sided affair. In the two games thus far, Worker has scored 19 runs. We believe Worker would struggle to score well in the upcoming game against Central Districts.
Will Young’s form has coincided with the form of Central Districts who have managed to turn things around who head into this game after back to back wins for the first time in this tournament. In two of the last three games, Young has scored a half century and a century which makes us believe he would score well in the upcoming game.

Auckland vs Central Districts Top Team Batters
Robert O’ Donnell to be Auckland’s top batter
With Finn Allen away on international duty, the onus would be on Robert O’Donnell in the remaining two games to take Auckland over the line. Even though O’Donnell has been that consistent in the last few games he has scored 136 runs and is one of the leading scorers for Auckland thus far which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Dane Cleaver to be Central Districts’s top batter
Even though Dane Cleaver did not have a great outing in the last game against Wellington, he is the main reason why Central Districts are on the brink of making the playoffs this year. With 192 runs, Cleaver is the leading run scorer for Central Districts which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Auckland vs Central Districts Top Team Bowlers
Danru Ferns to be Auckland’s top bowler
We are going to stick with Danru Ferns once again in the upcoming game as he has been our most reliable pick thus far. In the last game against Otago, Fern ended up with 3/32 and was the top wicket taker on the day which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Bevan Small to be Central Districts’s top bowler
Bevan Small has been sensational thus far in this tournament and has been one of the most consistent bowlers for Central Districts especially in the second half of the season. With 13 wickets in this tournament he is the leading wicket taker for Central Districts which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
