Pitch Report :
The Pitch of Pukekura Park is a batting-friendly wicket. Pacers might get some help toward the latter half of the match while spinners will be useful in the middle overs. However, pacers have proven successful here. The pacers are likely to get wickets with the new ball but batters are likely to score a big total after powerplay overs. The spinners should also have a say, with the dimensions of the ground bound to come into play. The chasing team have good record here, enticing sides to bat second upon winning the toss.
The average first innings scored here is 185 runs.

Preview :
Central Stags will take on Canterbury Kings in the eighth match of the Super Smash on Saturday. This match will be played at Pukekura Park in New Plymouth. Central Stags lost the opening match of the season against Wellington by 2 runs in what was a closely fought thriller and then managed to bounce back with a win in their previous match against Canterbury Magicians. They will be looking to carry on the winning form. On the other hand, Northern Districts are second in the table with 1 win and a loss in 2 matches. They won their previous match against Otago by 7 wickets.
Central Stags didn’t repeat the same mistake that they did against Wellington as they chased down the massive target of 187 in the final over against Canterbury Kings. The chase was well set up by Ben Smith and Dane Cleaver later fine finishing touches by Josh Clarkson handed them the first win of the tournament. As a batting group, they are doing a fine job at the moment and the bowlers need to work on their skills as they went for plenty of runs. Josh Clarkson has been outstanding with the bat scoring valuable runs in the middle order. Dane Cleaver too played two back-to-back good knocks. Home advantage will be a massive boost for them.
Northern Districts, on the other hand, lost to Canterbury Kings in a rain-shortened game in the tournament opener and came back sharply against Otago Volts to script 7 wickets win. Thanks to Mitchell Santner who set the game with his all-round heroics. Kristian Clarke and Tim Seifert played their role well in the winning cause. The spin twins Tim Pringle and Mitchell Santner have been highly effective picking up 2 wickets apiece in this tournament. Both sides have got exciting talents in their ranks and we can expect a good battle between them.
