NB vs WF Team Bets:

Mentioned below is the only team betting tips picked from the Day 2 of NB vs WF match prediction.

Northern Brave To Have a Low 1st Innings Score

Northern Brave have struggled for consistency and form from day one of the game. There has been minimal inputs right from the top order of batting. Jeet Raval and Joe Carter were to lead the pack and lost their wickets for 25 and 3 runs each. As it currently stands Northern Brave have lost eight wickets and have their lower order batsmen Brett Rendell and Kristian Clarke who will be opening day 2 of the innings. However the pressure weighs heavily on Brett Rendell who is one of the top scorers for his side. If he fails to deliver, the Knights will be stuck at a primitive total. Joe Walker is the only batsman who is yet to bat and considering batting is not hig biggest strength not much can be expected from the batsman. Northern Brave have not been their best this season and are languishing at the bottom of the table. Considering the fact that they will be joining this fixture on the back of a loss, they will be low in morale as they take on the Firebirds on day 2. Our aggregator, Pari Match is likely to offer odds for the Northern Knights in the NB vs WF team betting tips.

Brett Rendell To Score High

The lower order Knights batsman took control of the crease with the loss of Ish Sodhi's wicket at the end of the 55th over.

After being dismissed for a duck in the opening game against Canterbury, Rendell has turned things around to register two back to back half centuries in his last two games. He has an aggregate of 132 runs from the four innings played at an average of 33.00. After his abysmal performance against Canterbury, Rendell struck a 50 against Otago followed by 51 runs against Auckland. The 26 year old will be looking to help the knights deliver a competitive 1st innings score as the match heads into its day 2.

Kristian Clarke To Have A Quick Dismissal

The 22 year old batter is a new entrant in the First Class format of the game. Clarke made his FC debut in 2020 and has come out to bat in 15 innings since then. He has managed to accumulate 280 runs from these 8 matches at an average of 20.00. Clarke is playing his second match of the season. In the first game against Auckland the young batter scored 29 and 9 runs respectively. In the ongoing fixture, before stumps the lower order batsman struck 369 runs from the fifty balls played. Though his numbers speak volume in comparison to the other Knights batsmen, his minimal experience in the longest format of the game makes us think otherwise. In his two games, Clarke has a total of 53 runs at a below par average of 17.00. To place your bets on Kristian Clarke scoot over to Pari Match, as the aggregator comes up with odds for the batsman closer to the NB vs WF head to head match.
