In the 7th round of matches in the Plunket Shield, Canterbury are set to take on Northern Districts. This game would be the 21st match of this year’s competition and is set to be played at the Mainpower Oval in Rangiora. This is the penultimate set of matches in the league stage of this year’s tournament. Therefore, each and every game holds the utmost importance for all the teams.

Northern Knights are having a dream campaign as of now since they sit top of the table with four wins from their six games. Joe Carter is the top run-getter for the team this season around. Their batting has been superb, and the bowling has been complimenting them well this season. Brett Hampton and Scott Kuggeleijn have been the leading wicket-takers for the side this season.

Canterbury have been truly inconsistent this season as they sit fourth in the Plunket Shield standings. They have only managed to win one game from their six matches in the tournament thus far, which is a cause for concern for the side. Henry Nichollas leads the side’s batting charge more often than not, and the team is dependent on him to perform on most occasions.

Pitch Report

The pitch at the Mainpower Oval in Rangiora is a good one for batters, but they might have to survive the early spell from the pacers. There is light rain predicted which might give some more assistance to the seamers.

Player Picks

9
C

Henry Nicholls CNT | BAT

The veteran batter is sweating it out in the domestic circuit and is surely reaping the rewards as he is scoring runs for his side more often than not.

7.5
C

Joe Carter ND | BAT

The middle-order batter is amongst the top run-getters in this season’s tournament and would be looking to add more to his tally in this extraordinary campaign for him.

8.5

Scott Kuggeleijn ND | ALL

The all-rounder is in sublime form and recently earned his Test debut for New Zealand. His performances with the ball this season have been magnificent and would surely be in the nick to perform well once again.

8.5

Matt Henry CNT | BOWL

The pacer is coming on the back of a 7-fer in the first innings against Australia. He has been the lead bowler for New Zealand and would surely look to replicate this epic form for his domestic side as well.

8

Tim Southee ND | BOWL

The New Zealand skipper would surely be one of the picks for the team and given his experience, he will surely be an asset for any side

8

Bharat Popli ND | BAT

The middle-order batter is renowned to stabilize the innings and has been in stunning form for the team in this tournament.

The captain is coming into this game on the back of a king pair in the last game in the Plunket Shield and has been struggling for runs this season.
