Northern Districts vs Central Stags match prediction 26 Feb 2021

Northern Districts vs Central Districts Match 26 | Top Bets that can Make you Richer

Northern Districts will lock horns with bottom-placed Central Districts in match number 26 of The Ford Trophy 2020-21 at the Seddon Park in Hamilton.

The Ford Trophy has almost reached its business end and the Northern District have more or less ensured a birth along with Canterbury. However, as fascinating as it may sound, Northern Districts and Central Districts have not yet met in this season so far. Northern Districts have won five games so far and, on the other hand, Central Districts have managed to win just one and as a result the latter is reeling at the bottom of the points table. However, the Knights have lost two games on the bounce and their morale has taken some sort of a hit. It will be interesting to see if Central Districts can end their Ford Trophy 2020-21 campaign on a high. While the players gear up for this fixture, we need to think about our wallets as well; therefore I have assorted three of the best bets from this forthcoming fixture to bet on. However, today we are going to look at some of the high risk bets but if you look at these betting odds and the statistics, my prediction could well be true. Let me take you through them one by one:

Jeet Raval to be the top team batsman for Northern Districts

Jeet Raval is currently going through a purple patch with the bat and we might as well take a little bit of risk because where is the fun without risk in cricket betting. The Indian origin New Zealand left-hander is the second highest run-getter in the ongoing season of the Ford Trophy 2020-21 with 362 runs in just 8 matches at an average of 45.25 including one fifty and one brilliant hundred. His last five scores in List A cricket are something like this - 37, 69, 42, 8 and 105 and it is pretty much evident that he is in form right now with the bat. In his List A career, Rava has played 61 matches and has scored 1908 runs at a decent average of 31.27 including 4 hundreds and 8 half centuries. Betting odds of 4.00 has been offered by Bet 365 for Jeet Raval to be the top team batsman for Northern Knights and we can only hope that he justifies the odds offered for the opener.

Central Districts to hit more sixes in the game

This is one of the safer bets of the three I have offered here in this piece and the odds are also in our favour it seems. Central Districts are the forerunner in winning this battle of sixes against Northern Knights. They might be struggling at the bottom of the ladder but Central districts are in pole position to hit more sixes in the forthcoming fixture. Central Districts have smashed 40 sixes so far and, on the other hand, Northern Districts have managed to clear the ropes just 23 times. However, the last time these two teams played against each other, Northern Districts hit a six more than Central Districts and I am sure you guys can see that the margin is nominal. In the previous season of the Ford Trophy, Central Districts hit 53 sixes and Northern Districts could smash only 35 of them. Bet 365 is offering betting odds of 1.90 for Central Districts to hit more sixes in the upcoming match and it should be the order of the day.

BG Randell to be the top team bowler for Northern Knights

This is a really interesting market that we are going to indulge in as the betting odds for Brett Randell is weirdly on the higher side but his numbers are quite brilliant during the ongoing season of the Ford Trophy. The 25-year-old medium pacer is the highest wicket taker of the tournament so far as he has picked up 15 wickets in just 6 games at an average of 20.93 including one five-wicket haul. His List A career may be short but it is quite illustrious as he has played just 24 matches and he has picked up 46 wickets at an average of just a little above 22.0. In his last five List A matches, Randell has picked up 10 wickets and that is an average of at least a couple of wickets per game. In the previous season of the Ford Trophy, Randell was the second highest wicket taker for Northern Districts picking up 9 wickets in 4 matches at an average of 19.77. The scenarios I have mentioned so far only speaks volume about his brilliance and betting odds of 4.33 has been offered by Bet 365 for the same.
