Central Stags vs Auckland Aces match prediction 6th match

Central District Stags vs Auckland Aces | Best Player Bets in the Market

The 6th match of The Super Smash is scheduled to take place between Central Stags and Auckland Aces at Pukekura Park in New Plymouth on Wednesday, the 31st of December.

Auckland Aces have played two matches this season, against Otago Volts and Wellington Firebirds, and they lost both the matches. Central Stags have also played two matches, where they lost against Wellington Firebirds too, but pulled a win against the Northern Knights. While the teams are all set to face each other, Tom Bruce and Robert O’Donnell both skippers leading their teams from the front. The Aces are the favourites to win the match, and they have won 4 of the five previous encounters by the team, including two at Pukekura Park. While we ingest that, I have picked the top player bets from the market for you to bet on.

Josh Clarkson to Score Over 18.5 Runs

I want to start with an easier bet. Josh Clarkson, the youngster from New Zealand, has shown impressive play while playing for the Stags. In his 5 years with the team, he has played 46 innings and scored a total of 862 runs with an average of 26.94. He has shown some terrific batting prowess against the Auckland Aces and it shows in his numbers. His average against the Aces is resilient at 28.5 from 9 innings with a total of 171 runs scored. He has an adequate average at Pukekura Park of 19.6 from the 13 innings he has come out to bat on the pitch, with a total of 196 runs. He has scored 25 and 30 runs in the two matches this season, and all he has to do is continue his performance with the bat. Sportsbet.io has offered odds of 1.85 for Josh Clarkson to score over 18.5 runs.

George Worker to Score Over 22.5 Runs

George Worker is a veteran in the Kiwi’s international batting team and he has been a consistent batsman. He opened this season with 27 runs against the Wellington Firebirds and completely dominated the Northern Knights with a massive 71 runs in 42 balls. He has scored a total of 2789 from 113 innings in his career, at an average of 26.82. He has bat against the Auckland Aces in 23 innings and scored 579 runs at an average of 28.95. If we look at his games in Pukekura Park, from 20 innings where he has scored a total of 502 runs at an average of 27.89. Even his average in this year, from the 6 matches he has played has been 27.16. Sportsbet.io has offered odds of 1.85 for George Worker to score over 22.5 runs.

Tom Bruce to score under 22.5 runs

Here’s another Stags’ teammate to bet on - Tom Bruce. Central Stags had to find other ways to score because this hard-hitting Kiwi, failed to deliver. While his average playing for the Central Stags might seem deceptive at 31.65 from 49 innings, even his average against Aces and his average playing at Pukekura Park are against the bet. The reason I recommend this bet to you though is that he has been completely out of form all year. He has played 8 matches in 2020, and he has only managed to score a total of 58 runs from the matches. At an average of 7.25. His two games this season, where he scored 1 and 2 runs, have made his team have to depend on him less. Sportsbet.io has offered odds of 1.85 for Tom Bruce to score under 22.5 runs.
