Seddon Park

Northern Brave Women and Auckland Hearts Women are poised to clash in the opening game of the Women's Super Smash on December 26, 2024. The match is going to be hosted at Seddon Park, Hamilton, at 6:40 A.M IST.

Northern Brave Women vs Auckland Hearts Women Chances of Winning

Northern Brave Women were contenders to reach the final until they were knocked out in the eliminator game of the previous season. They were a top-performing team in the group stage with five wins. After starting their campaign with multiple defeats, they managed to turn their form on its head with four victories in the last five matches. The last fixture of the group stage against Otago Women sealed their fate as Northern Brave Women defended a score of 94 in a rain-affected match but they fell short in the semi-final against Central Districts Women by 45 runs, destroying their aspirations of a finale-appearance.

This was not the case for Auckland Hearts Women who had a forgettable campaign in the 2023 season. They had bad luck on their side at the beginning of the tournament where two of their fixtures were abandoned without a ball bowled, but they did nothing to salvage their campaign thereafter. Barring their wins against Canterbury Women and Otago Women, Auckland Hearts Women found themselves on the losing side more often than not which put them at the bottom of the table.

Northern Brave Women vs Auckland Hearts Women Betting Tips

Auckland Hearts Women to score low before first dismissal

Auckland Hearts Women had precisely one game in their last five outings during the last season where they managed to secure an opening total higher than 21.5. With Saachi Shahri and Isabella Gaze averaging at 15.75 and 4.28, respectively, the opening partnership was in doldrums for a majority of their campaign. They added 1, 6, 1, 12 and 26 runs to the first wicket and not much is expected of the pair this time around either.

Northern Brave Women vs Auckland Hearts Women Betting Odds

Northern Brave Women to have a better opening partnership than Auckland Hearts Women

During the previous season, Saachi Shahri and Isabella Gaze did not produce adequate results for Auckland Hearts Women’s first wicket. In the last three games of the season, it was mostly due to the latter’s inability to find her footing which led to totals of 1, 6 and 1 before the fall of the first wicket. Northern Brave Women’s Jess Watkin and Chamari Athapaththu were in a similar plight with opening stands of 0, 68 and 7 but they are expected to put on a better first partnership, especially if Watkin pulls her weight in the next game.

Auckland Hearts Women

Northern Brave Women were second on the points table during the group stage last season with five wins in ten fixtures and a net run rate of 0.231. Auckland Hearts Women did not compare in the slightest as they occupied the last position with two wins and an awful net run rate of -0.872. However, the bookmakers still favor the latter who hold a 4-1 lead over Northern Brave Women in their previous five head-to-head games.
