Northern Knights would be hoping for a better showing this season as they had a dismal campaign last season. Northern Knights ended the campaign with just two wins in the group stages and ended up sixth on the table. They had one win in the last nine matches which came against Wellington last term.

Wellington got off to a great start last season but in the second half of the campaign they struggled as Wellington lost three games on the bounce to end the group stages and were eventually knocked out by Canterbury in the playoffs. As per our calculations, Wellington are favourites in the upcoming game.

Brett Hampton struggled to make an impact last season as he scored 131 runs in ten matches with an average of 16.37 which is pretty low for a middle order batsman which makes us believe he will score low in the upcoming game.

Muhammad Abbas was one of the top batters for Wellington last season as he scored 206 runs in ten matches and was the third highest run scorer for his side which makes us believe he will score well in the upcoming game.

Northern Knights vs Wellington Betting Odds

Northern Knights to have a better opening partnership than Wellington

Northern Knights and Wellington head into this fixture after a contrasting campaign last season. Northern Knights struggled for consistency throughout the campaign as they one bagged two wins in the group stages, they had one win in the last nine matches which campaign against Wellington and ended up sixth on the table. On the other hand Wellington got off to a great start last term which ended up being the deciding factor as they struggled in the second half of the campaign but still made the playoffs where they were beaten by Canterbury. What makes this tip so enticing is the fact Wellington conceded a bigger opening partnership in each of the last four matches which makes us believe Northern Knights would end up having a better opening partnership in the upcoming game.
