Preview for Dream11 Fantasy
It has been a great season so far for Wellington and they are almost certain to make it into the knockouts. The side has been playing some fabulous cricket in this tournament and will face Auckland in its last league match. Thus far, Wellington won six out of the nine games that they played.
But the 3-run loss to Canterbury in their last match would have surely hurt them. While they look to make amends going into this match, Auckland will look to come down hard at them. They have actually got no other choice if they are to make it to the knockouts. The loss to Northern Knights in the previous game has surely hurt them and they must win this one.
