Our Prediction: Central Districts — Correct


Pre-match analysis published on 16 January 2026:

Genuinely tough to split these two - we marginally favour Central Districts.

No significant toss bias at McLean Park, Napier - it's been evenly split between batting first and chasing.

Watch for Auckland to attack early - they're scoring at 7.71 RPO in powerplays. Central Districts's new-ball attack has been restrictive, conceding just 7.39 in powerplays.

Defending totals suits Auckland - their death economy of 7.79 is impressive.

The prediction: Central Districts to win at 53% probability.
