Ford Trophy, 2018

Otago Volts vs Auckland Aces, Match 29 | OTG vs AUK WHO WILL WIN

The 29th match of the 2018 Ford Trophy will see Otago Volts lock horns with defending champions Auckland Aces as the race to the finals heats up.

This is the final league-stage match before the knockouts get underway. The table-topper will directly qualify for the finals while a preliminary final will be played out between the 2nd and third-placed side in the points table.

Otago Volts is currently at the top of the pile with 6 wins in nine games and a win against Auckland tomorrow will guarantee them a direct qualification to the finals spot.

Defending champions, Auckland Aces started off well with three wins in four games, before hitting a roadblock that saw them lose three games on the bounce; including a three-wicket loss to Otago.

The game assumes paramount importance to the Aces, who currently find themselves at the third spot, as a win here will bolster their chances of a direct qualification to the final day spot.
