Auckland vs Northern Knights Betting Odds

Auckland to have a better opening partnership than Northern Knights

Auckland and Northern Knights head into this fixture after both sides have had a similar start to the campaign. Both sides had games that were called off due to rain and have one win thus far. Auckland are the defending champions but have struggled for consistency thus far. Even though the game against Otago was a draw, if not for rain they would have lost the match. Auckland has one win in four matches and are currently third on the table. On the other hand, the Northern Knights head into this game after a disappointing defeat against Central Districts. They are currently fourth on the table. Both sides went head to head twice in the group stages and on both occasions Auckland dominated the proceeding and won on both occasions. What makes this tip so enticing is the fact on both occasions Auckland had a better opening stand which makes us believe they would once again have a better opening partnership in the upcoming game.

Martin Guptill to be Auckland’ top batter

Martin Guptill was once again impressive in the last game as he scored 20 before he was run out. With 111 runs, Guptill is the leading run scorer for his side which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.

Jeet Raval to be Northern Knights’ top batter

Jeet Raval has been one of the most consistent batters for Northern Knights in all formats. In the last match, Raval scored 31 and was the leading run scorer for his side in the game which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.

Auckland vs Northern Knights Top Bowlers

Danru Ferns to be Auckland’ top bowler

Danru Ferns was impressive in the defeat against Canterbury as he bagged three wickets in the game. Fern was sensational last season as he was the leading wicket taker which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.

Kristian Clarke to be Northern Knights’ top bowler

Kristian Clarke did not have a great game in the last outing, regardless we are going to back him once again as with four wickets, Clarke is the leading wicket taker for his side which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Northern Knights

Even though Auckland has dominated this fixture in the recent past, Northern Knights have a better record in this fixture. Both teams went head to head earlier this season and the game was suspended. The bookmakers have sided with Auckland in this game but we believe Northern Knights would bag maximum points in the upcoming game.
