Western Australia vs Tasmania Betting Tips
Tasmania to score low before 1st dismissal
Tasmania won their first game of the Sheffield Shield this season. However, their opening partnership did not last for long, similar to their previous season. Last season, when the sides clashed twice, TAS scored 4 & 10 and 72 & 16 runs before their first dismissal in those four innings. Caleb Jewell and Jake Weatherald opened for Tasmania in the first game of this season and secured the scores of 22 & 0 before their first dismissal. That said, you should pick this betting tip.
Western Australia to score high before 1st dismissal
Western Australia possessed a talented line-up of batters in the team. Cameron Bancroft and Sam Whiteman scored 8 & 77 and 56 & 56 runs before 1st dismissals in the 2 games against Tasmania last season. In the opening game this season, WA scored 13 runs before their first loss in the game. Bancroft and Whiteman are talented batsmen and will raise a handsome score together in the upcoming match.
