Auckland Aces vs Northern Brave match prediction 10th match

AA vs NB Match 10 Predictions & Betting Tips

Northern Brave will look to establish a winning streak in the early stages of the season when they face old rivals Auckland Aces at the Eden Park Outer Oval in Auckland on Monday, the 20th of December. Having had a relatively disappointing last season missing out on the knockout stage, Northern Brave 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 Super Smash 2021/22 betting tips for you from the AA vs NB match prediction.

It has taken quite a while, but finally all six domestic teams in New Zealand are finally underway in the tournament following prolonged delays in Auckland’s fixture schedule. However, it hasn’t been the start they would have hoped for, as the ghosts of last season continue to haunt them in the shortest format of the game. It doesn’t help that they have to face a formidable Northern Brave side in back to back encounters to kick off their campaign, given the clear disparity in the form of the two sides. One consolation for them is the fact that the national team doesn’t play their next game until next month, thus making available a bunch of capped players to pick from in their teams. With exceptional talent all round, it promises to be a well fought clash and on that note, here are my three best betting tips from the AA vs NB match prediction.

AA vs NB Team Bet:

One team has the definite edge over the other given their form and past history. Thus, I have picked the perfect team bet tip for you from the AA vs NB head-to-head encounter.

Northern Brave to win

Auckland Aces are going through a horrible cricketing phase. Last season, they finished joint last in the Super Smash with just 2 wins from 10 games. The Northern Brave achieved a significantly better five victories, racking up 12 more points and finishing spot above. In the List-A tournament as well, Auckland Aces finished second from the bottom with just 18 points, while the Northern Districts managed to end as runners up tallying 6 victories in the league stage. Additionally, Auckland severely lack match practice given they hadn’t played as a team since April until a couple of days ago in their Super Smash opener, even while the Brave have played 8 games already this season. Incidentally, Auckland’s opener was against Brave themselves, a match they ended up losing comfortably by 4 wickets and 13 balls remaining. They have now lost their last five T20 clashes against the Northern Brave, and by quite large margins, hardly giving even a modicum of fight. Thus, the Northern Brave are the definite favourites for this next clash and should stomp their way past the Auckland Aces once again.

AA vs NB Player Bets:

Both the lineups are filled with international stars who will be itching to score big runs in the domestic T20 circuit. After contemplating all possible combinations, I have picked the two perfect player bet tips for you from the AA vs NB head to head encounter.

Martin Guptill to excel

The Black Cap is among the greatest T20 players of all time, having racked up the most runs in T20 internationals in the history of the game. Having played 108 innings, Martin Guptill has aggregated 3,299 runs at a stunning average of 32.66, going clear past the likes of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. Of those, 678 runs have come across 18 innings in 2021 itself, at an excellent average of 37.66. The opener had a great outing in the season opener against Northern Brave, smashing 47 runs off just 36 balls for the Auckland Aces, lacing his innings with four boundaries and two maximums. The 35-year-old is coming off the back of a wondrous series against India in their own backyard, registering scores of 70, 31 and 51 in the three T20Is. Thus, with an outrageous record and in splendid form, Martin Guptill is bound to excel in the coming fixture.

Jeet Raval to score well

Another man with heaps of international experience primed to score big is Jeet Raval. The opener has a Test average of 30-plus after 24 games, along with a List-A average of 30.74 and quite a decent average of 22.94 in T20s, which should be enough to establish his overall batting credentials. However, of late he has been particularly great. It started with a fantastic 89 in a Plunket Shield game against Otago Volts, followed by a flamboyant 74 coming off just 57 balls in the Ford Trophy opener against Canterbury. The opener then blitzed his way to a brilliant 33 off just 18 balls in the Super Smash opener before being stumped. In the T20 tournament last season, Raval had aggregated an impressive 94 runs in three outings, averaging an excellent 31.33. Across his last 13 fixtures as a batsman, the 33-year-old has collected 654 runs in his kitty at a brilliant average of 40.87. Thus, Jeet Raval looks all set to extend his good streak of form into the Super Smash encounter against Auckland.
