The top-order batters of the CD side, comprising Will Young, Jack Boyle, and Dane Cleaver, have all been scoring runs even in their last game of the league. We think they are likely to get off to a strong start.
The odds are very low but that does n ot stop this bet as being a very attractive one. The liklihood of this bet coming through is very good so we are happy to take the 12%.

Blair Tickner will spearhead the CD bowling attack in the final. He has picked up 15 wickets in his last nine games with a strike rate of 12.8. Jayden Lennox started the season well and is still a force to reckon with.
He has picked up 11 wickets from his last nine games with a strike rate of 17.81.
Canterbury did a reasonable job in the league stage of the competition. They won four out of their ten games and ended in third place in the points tally. They collected 18 points in this competition phase with a net run rate of +0.280. Due to a superior net run rate, they qualified for the Eliminator round. They were tied with two other sides with 18 points.
They are going into this contest after two wins on the trot. One was played earlier today in the Eliminator round, which they won against Northern Districts by a comfortable margin of seven wickets.

Over the years, 46 domestic T20 games have been played at Basin Reserve. The teams batting first have won 25 games, while the teams chasing a target have won twenty. Both team managements will look at these stats and realize that batting first and putting up a big score on the board will be better than batting second and facing spinners on a worn-out track.
All things said, Basin Reserve is a batting-friendly venue. The wicket will initially offer pace and bounce to the quicks, but this also means the batters will get the ball coming onto the bat nicely. All in all, there will be something on offer for batters and bowlers alike on this track. We are expecting sunny and clear weather for this contest.
The temperature during the game will be close to 65 degrees Fahrenheit. There is no possibility of getting showers, and a complete game is expected.
Both sides have done well to reach the finals of the Super Smash competition and have done many things right. But Central Districts did marginally better than Canterbury in the league stage of the competition, as they won six games compared to four by Canterbury.
We reckon Central Districts will be the favorites at this neutral venue with their more in-form players.
Bet on Central Districts to win.
