The Otago Volts will lock horns with Northern Brave in the sixth match of the Men’s Super Smash 2021-22. University Oval in Dunedin will host this clash.
The Volts, led by Hamish Rutherford, haven’t made a great start to the tournament. In their first match, Central Districts defeated them by five wickets at the same venue. Thereafter, the Volts' second encounter against Northern Brave on December 3 was washed off due to rain.
After electing to field first, their bowlers did a reasonable job in the first 13 overs. The Brave struggled their way to 106 for the loss of six wickets. Left-arm wrist spinner Michael Rippon picked up three wickets. From there on, the heavens opened up and play didn’t start.
The Brave, led by Jeet Raval, started their campaign with a washed-out match. The skipper top-scored for them against the Volts, having scored 33 runs off 18 balls with four fours and two sixes. Joe Carter and Henry Cooper also got decent starts.
