Match Prediction & Tips
This looks set to be a great match and will feature a host of internationals. As they are at home the bookmakers have New South Wales as a strong favourite although the Cricketics team do feel they are too short.
Match Prediction: Queensland to win at 11/8*
The value on offer for an in-form Queensland team looks too good to turn down at 11/8*. We were really surprised to see that NSW was such a strong favourite for this match.
If he starts David Warner will be the main danger man for Queensland and taking his wicket early will be the key to success.
Here are some extra picks where we have seen more value.
- Pick 1: Top team batsman (Queensland) Usman Khawaja 5/2 & Marcus Labuschagne 11/4
We’re taking both players here as if either win there will be a profit. Looking at the line ups these are the most likely players to get a big score.
