CK vs OV Match 13 Predictions & Betting Tips

Canterbury Kings will look to return to winning ways when they face old rivals Otago Volts at the Hagley Oval in Christchurch on Sunday, the 26th of December. Having narrowly missed out on the title last season after some strong showings, the outfit will be keen to go that extra step this time around. Here, I have collated the three best Super Smash 2021/22 betting tips for you from the CK vs OV match prediction.

Last edition’s runners-up, Canterbury haven’t had the best start to the new T20 campaign. They were edged out in one of the most thrilling T20s one can possibly witness in their latest encounter, disrupting their winning streak in the tournament. Nevertheless, the team balance looks as strong as ever, and has only been bolstered by the presence of Black Caps currently back home for the holiday season. Otago Volts on the other hand have continued to disappoint in the white ball formats of the game, failing to capitalize on the mammoth potential that lies in their squad. Nevertheless, with all sorts of international stars expected to line up for their teams on the biggest day in the cricketing calendar, Boxing Day, the spectators can be assured of entertainment of the highest order regardless of which way the match ends up going. Here are my three best betting tips from the CK vs OV match prediction.

CK vs OV 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 CK vs OV head-to-head encounter.

Canterbury Kings to win

In the 2020/21 Super Smash season, Otago Volts had a shockingly poor campaign. They managed just two wins in 10 fixtures, ending up dead last in the table with a terrible net run rate of -1.449– the worst record in the league by a mile. Canterbury Kings, on the other hand, went on a rampage run, accumulating six victories and ending up an outrageous 16 points clear of the Volts while also having a significantly better net run rate of 0.079. The outfit had gone on to win the preliminary final as well and only just fell short in the showdown clash against Wellington. In the two clashes between the sides, the Kings had emerged victorious rather comfortably on both occasions by margins of 61 runs and 6 wickets respectively. The teams seem to have started the new season in the same vein of form as well. The Volts have already lost two out of their three games that have borne results, and that too quite handily by margins of 53 runs and 5 wickets. The Canterbury Kings, meanwhile, have won and lost two matches apiece. In their latest clash, they were bowled out for a shocking 108 by Northern Brave, but put on a gigantic comeback to take the match right down to the wire and end up losing by only one wicket, a testament to their incredible fighting spirit. Thus, with four victories in their last five direct T20 encounters, Canterbury Kings have a significant edge over Otago Volts and should cruise to victory in the coming fixture.

Cam Fletcher to excel

Cam Fletcher’s extended excellence continues to make the headlines in New Zealand, as his legend grows in the domestic circuit. During the Super Smash 2020/21, the Aucklander aggregated 189 runs at an excellent average of 31.50. He has commenced the new season on an even more impressive footing, smashing three half-centuries and a century already across just four matches in the Plunket Shield. The run total is an astonishing 344 just seven innings in, at an astronomical average of 86. As for the Super Smash, he has already accumulated 92 runs from his four outings averaging 30-plus yet again. The pick of the lot was his innings against the reigning champions Wellington Firebirds, where he smashed a match-winning 52* of just 28 deliveries, stroking five fours and four maximums in the process. Overall, the 28-year-old has 1,358 T20 runs in his fledgling career at a brilliant average of 33.95. In red hot form, Cam Fletcher looks primed to excel with the bat against Otago Volts.

Henry Nicholls to exceed expectations

An experienced Black Cap, Henry Nicholls is a household name in his country and has time and again delivered whenever he has been called upon regardless of the jersey he is wearing. The top-order batsman has 1,094 runs in 49 T20s, at an excellent average of 28.78. He last represented the Kiwis in the shortest format of the game in the summer, where in outrageously difficult batting conditions in Bangladesh he played some excellent knocks to come away with an average of 20-plus. For context, he was one of the only six batsmen in the entire tour to achieve that feat. The 30-year-old made his season debut in the Super Smash on Thursday against the Northern brave and impressed right off the bat, aggregating the most runs in the match with 35 off just 21 deliveries. Gradually growing in confidence, the only way is up from here for Henry Nicholls and he looks determined to prove his credentials yet again in the coming match.
