Dream11 Team for Canterbury vs Auckland - Ford Trophy.

Canterbury will take on Auckland in a crucial Ford Trophy game at the Mainpower Oval in Rangiora on Friday. The two teams are separated by just four points.

Canterbury have blown hot and cold of late, winning one and losing the other since the Ford Trophy restarted in February. Overall, they have five wins from eight games and are atop the points table with a net run rate of +0.758. A win on Friday will see Canterbury reach the knockout rounds of the Ford Trophy.

Auckland, on the other hand, are also in the running to book their place in the knockout rounds of the tournament. They started their Ford Trophy campaign slowly, losing four of their first five games. However, they are currently in the midst of a three-match winning streak. If Auckland win both their remaining games, they will certainly qualify for the knockouts. But they will most likely be eliminated if they lose both matches. One win might leave them dependant on other results.
