Host Wellington will be looking to get back to winning ways when they take on Northern Knights in the 18th match of the Ford Trophy 2024-25 played at Basin Reserve in Wellington on Thursday.

In the previous match, Wellington were completely outclassed by Otago in all three departments. Despite their second defeat, Wellington Firebirds are still placed at third position in the league table.

On the other hand, Northern Knights will have to raise their overall in a bid to break their two-match losing streak. Captain Jeet Raval will be hoping that the side can show discipline in all three departments in this fixture.

Last year in October, Wellington registered a 49-run win over Northern Knights in a game played at Seddon Park in Hamilton.
