Auckland Aces: The defending champions

With five titles to their name, the Aces have established a legacy of dominance in New Zealand’s domestic T20 circuit. Their victory last y??ear was unconventional yet decisive; although the final was abandoned due to rain, they were crowned champions by finishing atop the points table. Heading into this season, the Aces will aim to extend their title tally and cement their position as the premier force in the competition.

This structure not only rewards consistency but also adds a layer of suspense to the tournament as teams vie for the coveted playoff spots.

• The teams finishing second and third will battle in an Eliminator match, with the winner advancing to the grand final.

• Date and time: January 3 2023, 04:30 am GMT/ 10:00 am IST/ 05:30 pm local
• Venue: Seddon Park, Hamilton

Seddon Park Park Pitch Report:

The playing field at Seddon Park ??provides equitable assistance to both batters and bowlers. However, seam bowlers are likely to exert more influence in this environment, given the favourable conditions and the grassy nature of the pitch, which facilitat??es swing and seam movement.
