The 23rd match of the Super Smash 2020-21 will be played between Wellington Firebirds and Canterbury Kings at the Basin Reserve, Wellington.

This match will start at 07:10 AM IST (03:10 PM Local Time) (02: 10 AM GMT) and will be streamed live on FanCode.

Preview:

Wellington Firebirds will take on Canterbury Kings at their home ground, Basin Reserve. The latter has been the only team to have beaten this strong Wellington side this season and they hold the bragging rights for it. They are placed third with five wins from seven games and would love to repeat what they did a few days ago at Christchurch.

Wellington, on the other hand, would look to avenge that defeat, the only one that spoiled their perfect winning streak. They are still unbeaten at home and would love to keep that streak going with some all-around performance against the visitors. This could be one of the most exciting battles of this Super Smash 2020-21 season.
