Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Otago Sparks Women

Otago Sparks Women will go into the next match as the top favourite. Although Northern Brave Women have won two matches in a row, they will find it tough to beat the Sparks, who are on a rampage currently. Although their batters are yet to strike top form, it’s their bowlers who have been on top of their games. It should not raise eyebrows if Otago Sparks Women rack up yet another win to extend their winning streak.
