Preview

Otago Volts will lock horns with Wellington Firebirds in the 7th match of the Super Smash 2023 at the Molyneux Park in Alexandra on December 28. Otago Volts has played two matches so far where they are yet to win any and are placed fifth in the standing. Wellington Firebirds, on the other hand, has won one of their two games and is at the top of the table.

Otago Volts squared off against Canterbury in their last match where Otago Volts won the toss and elected to field. Canterbury started the innings and had scored two runs off three balls so far when rain interrupted the match. Due to excessive and persistent rain, the match could not be carried forward and it ended in a draw.
Wellington Firebirds had played against Otago Volts in their last encounter where Wellington Firebirds won the toss and elected to bat. They lost a wicket early but a sensational partnership for the second wicket not just brought them into the game but put them up ahead in the driving seat. With Tim Robinson probably playing the knock of the tournament scoring 139 off 64 balls, he helped his team post a mammoth total of 234 runs. Otago Volts started all guns blazing but they were under immense pressure of such a huge target which they could not fulfill and lost the game by 74 runs.
