Canterbury Kings vs Otago Volts match prediction
Canterbury Kings will lock horns with Otago Volts in the final league match of the ongoing season of the Super Smash at Hagley Oval in Christchurch on Tuesday. Having won just three out of their nine games, Canterbury Kings are placed at the bottom of the Super Smash 2019-2020 points table. They will only be playing to salvage some pride and will try to spoil Otago Volts’ chances to make it to the top of the ladder, which will propel them directly to the final of this season. The Volts have 22 points and are just two points behind Wellington Firebirds but here’s the fun fact – the former has a better net run rate than the latter and a win will secure a place in the final for the Jacob Duffy-led side. However, the money still remains to be taken and it will go to people who will place their bets on the correct markets for this game. And guess who is going to bring you the best markets to bet on? Yes, you are damn right, it’s going to be me!
Neil Broom is the highest run getter for Otago Volts this season
Neil Broom has been a seasoned T20 campaigner and he has only added to the strengths of Otago Volts with his batting prowess in the ongoing season of the Super Smash. Broom is the highest run scorer for the Volts with 289 runs under his belt in nine matches at an average of 32.11 and has two half centuries to his name as well. Just to make this bet safer for you, let me tell you, Broom is the highest run scorer when it comes to head to head encounters against Canterbury Kings as he has managed to rack up 480 runs. He has also recorded the highest score by a batsman (96*) in head to head fixtures between the Kings and the Volts. Betfair is offering odds of 4.50, which, I think, is more or less fair an odd for this guy, who has actually been good throughout the tournament.
The Volts have clattered 64 sixes this season
The Volts have played all-round cricket in the ongoing edition of the Super Smash League and when it comes to hitting sixes, they have done quite well, at least definitely better than the Canterbury Kings. Otago Volts are second in the list of hitting the most number of sixes in the league so far as they have managed to clatter 64 of them, whereas the Kings have only managed to hit 43. In the previous season of the Super Smash, Otago Volts managed to send the ball over the boundary lines 42 times compared to Canterbury Kings’ 34 sixes. Moreover, Hamish Rutherford, Neil Broom and Nick Kelly of Otago Volts have 43 sixes between them and boy they can hit big! On the contrary, Leo Carter and Chad Bowes have hit 10 sixes each so far and they are the only two big hitters in the Canterbury Kings squad. As you can see, all the scenarios are working in your favour, therefore without any further delay, go to Sport Nation and place your bet on this market as they are offering odds of 1.86 for Otago Volts to hit more sixes in the match tomorrow.
Volts’ first-wicket partnership is 35.62 compared to Canterbury Kings’ 29.62
The Volts have an upper hand in this market as well it seems and thereby giving you an opportunity to earn almost double your investment tomorrow. Won’t that be a brilliant way to kickstart your Tuesday? Let me take you through the numbers, so that you feel safe about the bet – Otago Volts’ first-wicket partnership average is 35.62 compared to Canterbury Kings’ 29.62. While Chad Bowes and Jack Boyle, the two openers for Canterbury Kings have struggled to stitch together a good partnership at the start of the innings, Neil Broom and Hamish Rutherford have done just the opposite, giving their side, Otago Volts, the quick fire starts, which is the prescribed medicine for a T20 game. Neil Broom and Hamish Rutherford are two of the highest run scorers in the tournament so far and they are also the highest run getters for their side as well. If you go with the players’ form and the average I mentioned earlier, then I believe you should go ahead and place your bet on 888 Sport, who are offering odds of 1.85 for Otago Volts to have the highest opening stand in the match on Tuesday.
