With little form or head-to-head history on record, Auckland Hearts and Canterbury Magicians start on level terms, and the toss and team news could decide it.

The toss could matter here. Chasing has been the better option at this ground, so the captain who calls right may well choose to bowl first. We expect a first-innings score of around 280, and anything well above that should put the batting side in control.

AH-W vs CM Pitch Report

Eden Park Outer Oval, Auckland

Conditions at Eden Park Outer Oval have been fairly balanced, with neither bat nor ball on top.

Across the last 40 WList A matches here, the side batting first has averaged 283, with chasing teams averaging 230. Anything in the 270-300 range should make a competitive total. Results have been evenly split: 22 wins for the side batting first and 18 for the chasers.

First-innings totals here have ranged from 168 to 392 in that time.

Wickets have been shared between pace and spin here: 59% to the seamers and 41% to the spinners. Seamers have gone at 6.21 an over and spinners at 6.80, so the quicker bowlers have been harder to get away.

Toss call: a close one. Bowling first and knowing the target is the safer choice.
