Winning Prediction
Northern knights have excellent depth in their batting and bowling units with a lot of all-rounders in their playing XI. Auckland has the advantage of experienced players that suit the conditions, but lack consistentcy with the bat. We expect Auckland to win this match due to their home advantage.
