Northern Districts vs Canterbury Kings match prediction 30 Nov 2021

ND vs CTB Match 1 Predictions & Betting Tips

Northern Districts will get their new List A campaign underway after a positive last season with a clash against old rivals Canterbury at the Seddon Park in Hamilton on Tuesday, the 30th of November. Having finished as runners up last season, Northern Districts will be looking to take a step forward this year and mount a comprehensive challenge for the title. Here, I have collated the three best Ford Trophy 2021/22 betting tips for you from the ND vs CTB match prediction.

Last season of the Ford Trophy was pretty much a Canterbury rampage run. Even though Northern Districts managed to finish second in the league phase, they were 5 points adrift of top spot and had a paltry net run rate of -0.093, compared to Canterbury’s magnanimous figure of 1.146. When the two sides met in the final, Canterbury simply brushed aside Northern’s challenge by racing to the target of 293 with 8 wickets and 30 balls to spare. They will be aiming to start off this season in the same vein as well, putting to rest all speculation of complacency. The mountain looks steep for Northern Districts, but a victory in their head to head encounter will go a long way in establishing their credentials for the List A title along with providing a major confidence boost. Here are my three best betting tips from the ND vs CTB match prediction.

ND vs CTB Player Bets:

Both the lineups are filled with potential stars who will be itching to score big runs upon the List A season’s commencement. After contemplating all possible combinations, I have picked the three perfect player bet tips for you from the ND vs CTB head to head encounter.

Cam Fletcher to excel

A stalwart for Canterbury in their title winning run, Cam Fletcher continues to dominate New Zealand’s domestic scene. During the Ford Trophy 2020/21, the Aucklander aggregated 156 runs at a whopping average of 78. Often assigned the role of finishing the job for the team, he ensured he stayed right till the end, with three not outs in five batting innings. He has commenced the new season on an even more impressive footing, smashing three half-centuries and a century already across just four matches in the Plunket Shield. The run total is an astonishing 344 just seven innings in, at an astronomical average of 86. His latest innings in fact came against Northern Districts themselves, where he stroked a match-winning 56* enroute a 2-wicket victory. Overall, the 28-year-old has 1,048 List A runs in his fledgling career at an average of 30.82. In red hot form, Cam Fletcher is almost sure to excel with the bat against the Northern Districts.
