Central Hinds vs Canterbury Magicians Chances of Winning
Central Hinds were a competitive team in the tournament last season but their campaign came to an end with a loss against title-winners Otago Sparks. The former were bundled out for a measly total of 124 runs where middle order batters Kerry-Anne Tomlinson and skipper Hannah Rowe were the only noteworthy contributions, having scored 39 and 32 runs, respectively. However, the target was not something the bowlers could defend at all and they wound up conceding defeat by three wickets in the end.
Canterbury Magicians were not a particularly strong side, though, and their defeat against Auckland Hearts in the last encounter did not come as a surprise. In a rain-affected 29-over game, the former posted 167 runs on the board; opener Kate Anderson went hammer and tongs to score 62 runs, followed by Izzy Sharp’s 42* and Abigale Gerken’s 36. Nevertheless, the bowlers had a tough time defending the target and they suffered an eight-wicket loss as a result.
