WF vs ND Dream11 Team - Ford Trophy 2020/21 | 19 Feb

The T20 tournament in New Zealand recently came to an end which means we’re set to go back to the slightly longer format with the 2020/21 Ford Trophy. This is the highest New Zealand ODD tournament in the country and after a break of nearly 2 months and more, we’re set to return. 3 matches are scheduled on the 19th February game day and we’re going to speak about Match 19 in particular right now.

We have Wellington in action and they’ll be wanting to improve their ODD record this season after a fabulous run in the Super Smash T20. Here, they have only 2 wins in 5 games and they take on a much stronger side in Northern Districts, the latter being one spot from the top of the points table with 4 wins in their 5 games.

Numbers

Last 9 completed games this season – 7 won batting second.
Last 5 games head to head, Northern Districts leads 3-1.
Brett Randell – 14 wickets in only 5 games this season.

Wellington Firebirds

Picking 2 wickets each in the team’s last 2 games at the Super Smash 2020/21, Peter Younghusband is a bowler in good form and he’s also their top wicket-taker in this tournament with 8 wins in 5 games, so we expect him to keep up this hot streak. Another player who should be in your WF vs ND fantasy team today is Ian McPeake who didn’t play the T20 season but has at least a wicket in his last 5 outings.

With the bat, the lesser known Troy Johnson may not be picked in too many teams after having a horrid T20 season but he’s their top scorer here with 200+ runs in just 5 games. He’s worth picking even though the bad form, as he may be more comfortable playing this format. Coming from a rich cricketing family, Michael Bracewell is also worth adding to your WF vs ND Dream11 team, someone who contributes in both departments.

Northern Districts

One of New Zealand’s most experienced domestic cricket batsmen, Jeet Raval is someone who loves the longest format but he knows his way around the ODD format as well, with one century already registered to his name this season so far. With the ball, Brett Randell is leading the tournament charts with at least 2 wickets in every game so far in the 2020/21 Ford Trophy, including one 5-fer in his 5 games this season.

With nearly 200 runs in this tournament so far with the bat and also accounting for 8 opponent wickets in this tournament, Brett Hampton is an all-rounder who can even be picked as the captain or vice-captain of your PlayerzPot (Use Code “READ1234“) WF vs NK fantasy team. Coming off 4 wickets in 4 games at the T20 tournament, Anurag Verma may be an interesting additional bowling pick as well.
