CS vs OV Match 11 Predictions & Betting Tips

Central Stags will look to extend their perfect start to the season when they face old rivals Otago Volts at the McLean Park in Napier on Saturday, the 18th 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 CS vs OV match prediction.

After a flurry of interruptions in the calendar on account of rain and what not, the Super Smash season finally seems to be in full flow with the matches coming thick and fast. We have crossed the mark of 10 fixtures already, and the teams are beginning to show their form and prowess in these early stages. Moreover, with just six participant teams, even the double round robin format passes by in a flurry as teams still seek to find their feet in the tournament. Thus, early momentum is paramount and that is exactly what the Central Stags have managed to accumulate. They’ll be hoping to maximize this stretch of good results and firmly establish themselves as contenders early on, in order to not get stuck up in the scrap that emerges during the final few rounds. On that note, here are my three best betting tips from the CS vs OV match prediction.

CS 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 CS vs OV head-to-head encounter.

Central Stags 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. Central Stags, 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 fantastic net run rate of 0.587. In the two clashes between the sides, Central had emerged victorious rather comfortably on both occasions by margins of 53 runs and 5 wickets respectively. The teams seem to have started the new season in the same vein of form as well. While the Volts have won and lost a match apiece, the Stags have emerged triumphant in two of their three encounters so far. One of them was a square off against Otago themselves, who posted a decent total of 184/5. However, their bowling gave way as usual and in no time Central Stags had raced to the target with an entire over to spare. Thus, with four victories in their last five direct T20 encounters, Central Stags have a significant edge over Otago Volts and should cruise to victory in the coming fixture.

CS vs OV Player Bets:

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

Hamish Rutherford to score well

A former Black Cap, Hamish Rutherford has been back at his very best in recent times. In the ongoing season, he has already scored two first-class centuries and a fifty in four Plunket games, but saved his best for white ball cricket. Playing in the Super Smash opener against Central Stags themselves, the top-order batsman had hammered a stunning 82 off just 47 deliveries. The 32-year-old now has 768 runs in his last 18 innings across formats, boasting a brilliant average of 42.67. His latest encounter came in the Ford Trophy against Canterbury, where he again scored a promising 24 against the new ball. All in all, the Otago Volts skipper has been in great touch in recent times and there are all the signs of him easing past the required threshold in the coming match.

Josh Clarkson to exceed expectations

The youngster has been making waves of late in the white ball domestic circuit in New Zealand, and has started off the Super Smash season in great style. Josh Clarkson has played 62 T20s in his career, scoring 1,183 at an impressive average of 28.85. He has five half centuries to his name, which is indicative of his overall consistency in getting good starts and even on bad days getting at least a few runs to his name. Last season, the 254-year-old had accumulated 280 runs in 11 Super Smash games for the Stags, averaging a commendable 28. However, this season Clarkson simply took off in the opener, smashing a brilliant 71* off just 32 deliveries, hitting three fours and six maximums in the process. This was followed by another quickfire 25 from 11 balls against Canterbury in his latest match, albeit this time it came in a losing cause. Nevertheless, Josh Clarkson looks in fine fettle and is primed to explode once again with the bat against the Otago Volts.
