AUCK vs WELL Match Prediction & Analysis
Auckland Aces will take on Wellington Firebirds in the 15th match of The Ford Trophy 2023-24. The Aces playing at home will be confident after their big win against the Northern Knights in their previous game. The Wellington Firebirds defeated the Canterbury Kings and will look to use this momentum.
The Auckland Aces have won the last three games and sit at the top of the points table. The side has its batsmen in good form and will look to cash on that. The Wellington Firebirds have won only once in the season and have a poor record against the Aces. It remains to be seen if they can overcome this poor record.

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
We will have overcast conditions at Auckland, and it might assist the bowlers in what is otherwise an excellent batting surface. Batsmen can play on the up after seeing off the first few overs. To feel confident, the side that bats first in this game shall target a score of more than 300 runs.
AUCK vs WELL Pitch Report
Eden Park Outer Oval assists the bowlers at the start of the game. The ball comes onto the bat nicely, allowing batsmen to play their strokes freely. The short dimensions make it a challenging surface for the spinners.
Toss: To Bowl
It will be the first game at this venue, and there will be some juice on the surface for the bowlers early on in the game. There will be something for the bowlers on this wicket. Both the captains are likely to consider at the toss, and the side winning it would look to bowl first.
