Victoria are favourites to win
Victoria beat Tasmania on Thursday while New South Wales defeated Queensland the next day. Both teams have played four games so far and are currently occupying the second and third positions in the standings with 16 and 9 points respectively. Victoria and New South Wales are set to face each other on October 16 at the North Sydney Oval, Sydney. This will be the 17th match of the Matador BBQS One-Day Cup 2016 and play will commence at 2:30 PM local time.
Read on for our betting tips and match prediction for New South Wales vs Victoria, Matador BBQS One-Day Cup 2016 17th match....
New South Wales have a powerful top-order batting. Since Maddinson has not got a big score yet, the team will want Hughes, Cowan and skipper Henriques to fire against Victoria. Cowan has fifties in his previous two innings while Henriques is among the tournament's top 5 run-getters. We predict either of these two to top-score in this match.
The right-arm left-arm pace combination of Pat Cummins and Doug Bollinger is going to be the key for NSW with the ball. The duo took four and three wickets each to demolish Queensland's batting lineup in Friday's game. So the team will back them to strike early against Victoria. Cummins has picked up ten wickets in three games and he could be the top bowler for NSW.
The opening pair of Marcus Harris and Cameron White are the vital elements in Victoria's batting lineup. With Maxwell and Handscomb not performing up to the mark, it will be down to these two to ensure the team does well with the bat. White has amassed 315 runs so far and is leading the runs charts this year. Expect him to top-score for Victoria.
Michael Beer and Marcus Stoinis have taken six wickets in four games and are featuring among the tournament's top 10 bowlers. Fawad Ahmed deceived the CAXI batsmen with his legspinners a few days back and finished with a four-wicket haul. Stoinis also picked up three wickets in that match and we predict him to be the top bowler for Victoria in this game.
New South Wales are outsiders at 2.12 with 1xbet and 2.00 with bet365. Victoria have recorded wins in their last two games and they even had the better of NSW the last two times these teams played against each other. This makes them short favorites at 1.73 with betfair and 1.80 with bet365.
New South Wales have been a better side than Victoria if we take a look at the performances of the two teams from the recent past. NSW won the tournament last year and they finished second in the two seasons prior to this. Victoria came third, fifth and third in the previous three seasons.
But Victoria seem to be doing better this year with three wins from four games as compared with NSW's two wins and two losses from their four games. The former will be heading into this match with back-to-back victories and so they will have the momentum on their side. Also, they have beaten NSW in their previous two encounters which will surely give them a huge psychological boost.
New South Wales are a strong team and they are one of the strongest contenders for this year's title. We, however, predict Victoria to emerge victorious in this match.
