New South Wales Women vs Queensland Women Chance of Winning

New South Wales (NSW) has made significant additions to their roster as they seek to rebound from a disappointing 2022-23 campaign. In the previous WNCL season, NSW finished in sixth place, marking their worst-ever performance in the competition. They had to cope with numerous international call-ups and injuries, resulting in the use of 21 different players across their 12 matches. However, there is optimism for a resurgence in the upcoming 2023-24 season, thanks to the emergence of several talented young players and astute recruitment efforts, both domestically and internationally. One particularly notable addition is all-rounder Georgia Adams, who joins the team as an international signing. Adams currently captains the Southern Vipers in England's domestic competition and topped the wicket-taking charts in the 2023 women's Hundred while representing the Southern Brave. Additionally, the team welcomes back WNCL legend Sarah Coyte, who returns to her home state after securing back-to-back titles with Tasmania and having stints with South Australia and the ACT as well. Seamer Ebony Hoskin has earned a contract after featuring in 10 out of 12 matches last season, following her move from the Riverina. Leg-spinner Isabella Malgioglio also impressed during her two matches against the ACT, earning herself a contract with the team. To prepare for the upcoming season, the Breakers have engaged in trial matches against Victoria, Queensland, and the ACT, providing valuable additional game time against strong opponents. These developments have raised hopes for a successful campaign in 2023-24.

Georgia Redmayne is set to make a highly anticipated return for Queensland as they commence their domestic 50-over season this week, facing New South Wales. Queensland's youthful and talented squad now has an extra season's worth of experience under their belts, and they are aiming to build on that experience after narrowly missing out on the 2022-23 WNCL final. Redmayne's comeback is a significant boost to Queensland's batting lineup, which lacked a top-10 run-scorer last season. However, the trust invested in young talents by the Fire management is expected to yield positive results in due time. Promising young players such as Georgia Voll (20), Charli Knott (20), and Courtney Sippel (22) are among the most exciting prospects in the country. Despite having more than half of their 17-women squad aged 20 or under, the Fire also benefit from the presence of experienced campaigners and a wealth of all-round options. They also have an emerging star in leg-spinner Grace Parsons. In addition to their existing squad, Queensland has introduced uncapped players Bonnie Berry (17) and Kira Holmes (20). Furthermore, Zoe Cooke, a 27-year-old experienced pace-bowling all-rounder, has joined the team from the ACT.

New South Wales Women vs Queensland Women Betting Odds

New South Wales Women to score over 24.5 runs before their first dismissal

NSW-W’s opening duo of Phoebe Litchfield and Tahlia Wilson stitched a 134 run stand between them in their last game. Both batters displayed phenomenal performances last season. They averaged almost 49.87 & 39.83 respectively.

She smashed a century and two fifties last time. She is arriving here after scoring 279 runs at the Women’s Hundred Competition at an average of 34.87.

Grace Harris, the 30-year-old Australian all-rounder, managed to bag five wickets even though she played only three games. She was the most economical bowler from her side last season, maintaining an economy of 2.61. We predict Grace Harris to be the top bowler for New South Wales in the game.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win: Queensland Women

Queensland Women are the frontrunners to win this upcoming contest against New South Wales Women. Their performance in the previous season was notably superior to that of their counterparts. QLD-W secured the 3rd position in the league table and narrowly missed making it to the final match. Conversely, NSW-W had a disappointing campaign last season, finishing second-to-last in the league table. Furthermore, Queensland boasts a superior head-to-head record against New South Wales. QLD-W has emerged victorious in each of their last four completed matches against NSW-W. Their goal is to maintain this winning streak and secure a victory over NSW-W in the upcoming fixture.
