OS-W vs CH-W Match Prediction & Analysis
Although this is only match four of the tournament, this Women's Super Smash already looks like being one of the best editions ever seen of the competition.
So far we have seen a 'no-result', one victory for Canterbury Magicians and one for Otago Sparks with those same Sparks and Auckland Hearts both losing one match each.
Although all three tosses have been won by captains who have chosen to field first, it hasn't guaranteed victory which means that the games are not being decided by the flip of a coin, as is often the case with other leagues!
Can Central Hinds get off to a winning start or will Otago Sparks make it two wins from three? All will be revealed at Molyneux Park on New Year's Eve.

TEAMS PREVIEW
Otago Sparks Preview
After their defeat against the Canterbury Magicians in Match 2, there was plenty of pressure on Otago Sparks ahead of their clash with Auckland Hearts which also took place at Molyneux Park, Alexandra.
But the Sparks did not show any of that pressure as they produced a brilliant performance with both bat and ball to post their opening victory of this campaign.
Eden Carson was the pick of the bowlers, picking up 3/28, but English left-arm spinner Kirstie Gordon continued her impressive start to the tournament as well and returned figures of 2/14.
With the bat, Suzie Bates will always be a threat at the top of the order and her opening partner, Bella James, as well as keeper-batter Polly Inglis both impressed with attacking intent in the last match.
OS-W Over/Under Betting Tips
Bates has scored 50 & 8 runs in the Women's Super Smash 2025 season, she has been in good touch and at Molyneux Park, Alexandra she has scored 3 50's and one 30 plus score in four of her last five T20's. We back Bates to continue her good run of form and score over 26.5 runs.
Otago Sparks Predicted Playing XI:
Suzie Bates, Bella James, Felicity Leydon-Davis, Caitlin Blakely, Polly Inglis (wk), Hayley Jensen (c), Olivia Gain, Kirstie Gordon, Anna Browning, Eden Carson, Emma Black

Central Hinds Preview
After going all the way to the final in the 2023/24 Women's Super Smash, Central Hinds very nearly lifted the trophy in a 17-over per-side affair which saw Wellington Blaze win by 1 run (DLS).
Rosemary Mair setup the opportunity for the victory by returning incredible figures of 4/5 from her four overs, including bowling a maiden, and she will be key with the ball once again in this game along with openers Claudia Green and Hannah Rowe.
Rowe is also an important part of the batting line-up who will take the attack to the bowlers. At the top of the order, captain Natalie Dodd and opening partner Hollie Armitage will look to get the team off to a strong start.
CH-W Over/Under Betting Tips
Newton scored 158 runs in 9 matches last season, where she crossed the 15 runs mark in 5 off the 9 matches played. She bats in the top order and more often than not provides a good start to the central districts. We predict her score to be over 15.5 runs against the Otago Women.
Central Hinds Predicted Playing XI:
Hollie Armitage, Natalie Dodd (c) (wk), Thamsyn Newton, Hannah Rowe, Mikaela Greig, Claudia Green, Rosemary Mair, Flora Devonshire, Georgia Atkinson, Priyanaz Chatterji, Ashtuti Kumar
Central Hinds Actual Playing XI:
Emma McLeod, Flora Devonshire, Kerry-Anne Tomlinson, Mikaela Greig, Thamsyn Newton, Kate Gaging, Claudia Green, Hannah Rowe, Ocean Bartlett, Rosemary Mair, Hollie Armitage
PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
Although the temperature will only be at 14 degrees at the start of the game, it should creep up to 18 degrees by the end of the clash. There will be cloud throughout but any chance of rain will reduce as the fixture progresses.
OS-W vs CH-W Pitch Report
This is not the quickest surface in New Zealand and we expect the pitch to be a bit slower than in Matches 2 and 3! Whoever bats first will be looking to post a score of between 120-130.
Total Over/Under Betting Tips
The Sparks smashed 18 fours, averaging 9 fours game this season and they do have a commendable batting lineup than their opponents and we predict the Sparks fours count to be more than that of the Central Districts in this fixture.
We back the home team Otago Women to win the coin toss in this fixture
Toss: To Bowl
The opening three games of the tournament have seen the toss winning captain choose to field first each time. Therefore, we predict that both skippers will want to bowl first in this clash.
OS-W vs CH-W
Winning Prediction
We certainly expect Central Hinds to be one of the top sides in this tournament, but this will be their opening game and they may struggle to get up to pace immediately. Otago Sparks have already played twice on this pitch and we expect them to get another victory in this match.
We are backing Otago Sparks to win!
