Western Australia to score high before 1st dismissal

This season, in seven matches, Western Australia scored 13, 227, 43, 35, 32, 11 and 107 runs before their first wicket fell in the first innings. The duo posted 107 runs for their opening partnership in their last outing where Bancroft scored 42 whereas Whiteman smashed 107 runs on his own. Whiteman and Bancroft have remarkable averages of 42.27 and 53.63 respectively, indicating their consistent performance in the competition.

Western Australia vs Tasmania Toss Prediction

The pitch gets flatter as the game progresses allowing for easy stroke-making. There may not be a lot of movement off the surface later in the match and hence, pacers need to strike early while there is some help on offer. While there is no clear advantage in favor of the team batting first, we reckon, chasing will not be easy in a high-pressure game especially if the target is quite competitive.

Weather Report

Although there is a low chance of showers during this match, the skies will remain partly cloudy and particularly windy. The temperatures during the game will hover around 23 degrees Celsius.
