Otago Sparks Women
Otago Sparks Women will face Auckland Hearts Women in the eliminator match of the Women Super Smash of this season as Eden Park Outer Oval in Auckland will host this fixture. They are currently placed in the 2nd spot on the points table with eight wins in ten league matches.
They had a good run last season as well as they finished second in the points table losing the pre-final to Auckland failing to make it into the finals. This year they will try to rectify the mistakes of the past and are already a step away from the finals.
In their last encounter against Auckland, after electing to bat first they posted a target of 153 runs. Their skipper, Suzie Bates played a splendid knock of 89 Runs in 61 balls including 10 fours while Katey Martin amassed 40 runs.
In return, Auckland couldn’t resist the lethal bowling attack of Otago’s leading bowler EJ Carson as she picked four scalps while conceding 12 runs in four overs. Molly Loe and Emma Black also accounted for two scalps each. Currently, both the departments of Otago are in-form and performing consistently in the tournament. They will certainly be looking to rectify the mistakes of the past against Auckland and emerge on top of the latter.

Auckland Hearts Women
On the other hand, Auckland faced a humiliating defeat in their last match as they were knocked over at a total of 89 Runs by Wellington Blaze in their first innings. As the top order collapsed at single digits Saachi Shahri stood up to score 34 runs and remained their highest contributor. In return, Wellington women easily chase the target in 13.2 overs while losing five of their wickets.
Arlene Kelly took two scalps for Auckland Women while Anna Peterson and Bella Armstrong shared one scalp each. They will be looking for a comeback after their last game in the tournament as they were completely outplayed by the opposition. After winning their first two matches both the departments appear to be missing the edge and we have witnessed repeated failure of their batting order in the past few fixtures.

OS-W vs AH-W, Eliminator, Who will win the match, Today Match Prediction
Otago Sparks Women is expected to win against Auckland Hearts Women.
Otago definitely looks like a more balanced side than Auckland Hearts with their in-form key players like Katey Martin and their skipper, Suzie Bates which they would be relying on to win this match. But they really need to be on their toes to defeat the Auckland Hearts on their home ground.
On the other hand, Auckland is struggling with the overall performance of its squad in both departments. While their skipper, Lauren Down is the only player who has delivered so far in the tournament. Their whole batting lineup got knocked over by Canterbury in their last match for a low total. They really need to be on their toes to defeat Otago who is backed by eight past wins.
Popular Betting Odds For OS-W vs AH-W, Eliminator, Today Match Prediction, Cricket Betting Tips
Top Batsman for Otago Sparks Women– Suzie Bates
Suzie Bates has always been the star performer for the Otago and the most experienced as a skipper. She has always contributed whenever the team needs to be backed. She is currently the leading scorer in the tournament. In 10 league games, she has smashed 426 runs with an impressive average of 60.85. In the last encounter against Auckland, she played a captain’s knock while scoring 89 runs in 61 balls and is expected to continue to dominate in this contest as well.
Top Batsmen for Auckland Hearts Women- Katie Perkins
Perkins has always backed her side in every match possible. Once against Otago where she scored 29 Runs in 32 to take her side for a respectable total and again in the last match playing an important knock of 29 Runs against Canterbury. She is currently the second leading run-scorer for Auckland and has amassed 229 Runs in 10 games. As the Hearts batting department is repeatedly failing to perform she will be a safe pick to place your bets on.
Top Bowler for Otago Sparks Women– EJ Carson
With 15 wickets in 10 games, Carson is leading the tally for most wickets for her team. We witnessed a stunning spell from her in the last encounter against Auckland where she picked four scalps to restrict Auckland batters to a score of 108 Runs in the second innings. She proved to be a game-changer in that fixture while sealing the win for her side.
Top Bowler for Auckland Hearts Women- Arlene Kelly
Though after bagging nine wickets so far Kelly is already way ahead of her peers and is leading the wicket tally for Hearts Women. She was the only bowler who stood out in the last game against Wellington where she bagged two scalps while conceding just 17 runs. We can expect some good bowling figures from her in this match as well. Kelly can prove to be a destructive batter in the top order as well and therefore is a good pick as a bowler to place your bets on.
