Otago vs Canterbury Prediction & Betting Tips 2024

Max Chu has been one of the most impressive batsmen for Otago prior to this series. Even though he did not have a good tournament last season we expect him to dominate and score well in the upcoming game.

Henry Nicholls was sensational last season as he scored 317 runs in 11 matches with an average of 39.62. He was the leading run scorer for his side which makes us believe he will score well in the upcoming game.

Otago vs Canterbury Betting Odds

Canterbury to have a better opening partnership than Otago

Canterbury and Otago go head to head after both sides had contrasting campaigns last season. Canterbury did not have a great start but managed to turn things around and made the finals where the game was called off due to rain and they lost the title as Auckland had a better record in the group stages. On the other hand Otago struggled to make an impact in the group stages and were eventually eliminated in the group stages. Both sides went head to head twice in the group stages. The opening game was called off and both sides managed to share the spoils. In the second match Canterbury won the tie with four wickets to spare. They also had a better opening partnership on the day which makes us believe Canterbury would end up having a better opening stand in the upcoming game.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Canterbury

Historically Canterbury has dominated Otago in T20 format 20-10. They are unbeaten in each of the last three encounters which is probably why the bookmakers have favoured them in this game and we believe you should do the same as Canterbury would bag maximum points in the upcoming game.
  • Otago to win - 1.95 (PariMatch)
