Match Preview

Otago Volts will square off with Wellington Firebirds in the 15^th match of the Super Smash T20 2021/22 on Tuesday. Otago Volts are not at their usual best in this tournament. They have lost two back-to-back matches against Canterbury and Central Stags. They conceded 170 plus runs in the last two matches and fell short of the target by a way to margin. They sit at the 5^th spot in the standings with 6 points.

Wellington Firebirds, on the other hand, too are going through a rough patch in this tournament. They are out of focus at the moment as they lost 3 back-to-back matches on the trot. With only one win to their name, they are placed at the bottom of the standings with 4 points.

Otago Volts Squad:

Hamish Rutherford(C), Josh Tasman-Jones, Neil Broom, Nick Kelly, Anaru Kitchen, Llew Johnson, Michael Rippon, Max Chu(WK), Angus McKenzie, Jacob Duffy, Matthew Bacon, Beckham Wheeler-Greenall, Jarrod Mckay, Dale Phillips, Mitch Renwick(WK), Josh Finnie, Jacob Gibson, Travis Muller, Michael Rae

Weather Report & Pitch Condition

The temperature is expected to hover around 17°C on the matchday with 65 % humidity and 14 km/hr wind speed. There are a few chances of precipitation during the game.

The Hamilton surface provides an impartial wicket where both the departments are anticipated to receive an almost equal amount of help from the pitch. Spinners can come lethal in the middle overs once again here. Pacers will get initial help considering the grass surface present.
