Central Districts vs Canterbury Chance of Winning

Central Districts have had a phenomenal campaign thus far, they were the best team in the group stages and considering the fact they struggled last season, this has been a brilliant turn around as they are one step away from winning the championship. In the last match they beat Auckland with five wickets to spare.

Canterbury has had an underwhelming start to the campaign as they looked down and out after the first five matches. They managed to turn things around in the second half of the campaign and made the playoffs where they beat Northern Knights. As per our calculations, Canterbury are favourites in the upcoming game.

Central Districts vs Canterbury Betting Odds

Canterbury to have a better opening partnership than Central Districts

Central Districts and Canterbury head into the finals as the two best teams in the competitions. Central Districts struggled to make an impact last season as they missed the playoffs but this season they have been brilliant thus far and have been the best team in the tournament. With six wins they ended up at the top of the table and made the playoffs this season. On the other hand, last year’s finalists struggled in the first half of the campaign but were dominant in the second half of the campaign as they ended up third on the table. Both sides went head to head in the group stages and Central Districts won the game but it was Canterbury who had a better opening partnership which makes us believe they would end up with a better opening partnership in the upcoming game.
