Central Stags
Central Stags had disappointing last season as they finished last and only one-two matches out of 10 games. Their performance last year’s performance was really surprising as they had many experienced and current national players like Adam Milne, Ajaz Patel, Doug Bracewell, and Will Young but couldn’t transfer their performances on the pitch.
This season is going to be even harder for them as their key players like Ajaz Patel and Will Young are with the Test team in India and will be unavailable for initial matches which is going to be really, really hard to deal with. It is a new season and a fresh start for Central Stags so they would be hoping for a change of fortunes and start the tournament on a strong note.

Auckland Aces
Just like Central Stags, Auckland Aces had a disappointing season and they finished 2nd last just one spot above Central Stags. Auckland is one of the most successful teams of New Zealand’s domestic cricket but has been struggling in all tournaments. It is mainly because of the lack of any young exciting prospect rising through ranks.
Auckland Aces depend on their William O Donnell who was their highest run-scorer with more than 500 runs which is exceptional but other players need to step up and support him if they want to turn things around in this tournament. They have many match-winners in the squad but all they need to do is to come together as a team and fire at the right moment. It is a fresh start and they would be hoping for a strong outing this time.

Popular Betting Odds For AA vs CS, New Zealand Domestic One-Day Trophy, Today Match Prediction, Cricket Betting Tips
Top Batsman from Central Stags – Tom Bruce
Tom Bruce has played 17 games for New Zealand and is the main man in the inexperienced squad of Central Stags. He had disappointing last season as he only managed to score 250 runs which was the main reason behind Central Stags’ struggles. Bruce is naturally a lower-order batsman but is playing in the middle order for them to provide stability and needs to perform at his best if Central Stags want to have a good season. Bruce is an attacking-minded player and Auckland’s surface and dimensions will suit him. He is our pick for best batsman from Central Stags.
Top Batsman from Auckland Aces – William O Donnell
William O Donnell was the tournament’s highest run-scorer last season with a record-breaking 537 runs. He is just 24-year-old and the National team call-up will be just around the corner if he repeats last season’s heroics. William was only shining a light in Auckland’s disappointing season but the new season brings new challenges and he has got all the skills to come out on top. He is a talented player with sound technique and always looks really settled on the pitch. Willam is coming off great recent form and can give you good returns. He is our pick for best batsman from Auckland Aces.
Top Bowler from Central Stags – Blair Tickner
Top Bowler from Auckland Aces – Ross ter Braak
Ross ter Braak picked 13 wickets last season and was one of the brightest prospects in their squad. The 24-year-old left-arm fast bowler has till now impressed everyone with his skills and he will be hoping to continue his rise in domestic cricket through another impressive season.
He swings the bowl in powerplay overs and his inswing to right-handers makes him a genuine threat which kind of gives vibes of Kiwi star Trent Boult. Braak is a rising bowler and could give you good returns from this match.
