NSW vs VIC Match 8 Predictions & Betting Tips

New South Wales’ parade of fixtures against their age-old rivals continues with a second Marsh Cup fixture of the season against Victoria at the iconic Sydney Cricket Ground on Monday, the 24th of November. Having already played three first-class games against each other this season, the two sides are yet to play a List A fixture in the new campaign owing to COVID-19 delays and match abandonments. Here, I have collated the three best Marsh One Day Cup 2021/22 betting tips for you from the NSW vs VIC match prediction.

Coming off the back of a strong domestic season that saw them finish as runners up in the Sheffield Shield along with clinching the Marsh One Day Cup, New South Wales must be getting desperate at this point to get some white ball cricket in. Their first-class season has gotten off to a disastrous start, losing back to back games against Victoria in what was hardly a convincing fight. Just when their Marsh Cup opener seemed to be their chance to earn some respite, the heavens opened up and the match had to be scrapped off without a ball being bowled. Even as their third red ball tussle of the season is being played right now, the two sides will be looking ahead to finally kick off the one day campaign even if they are resigned to just facing each other at this point in time. All in all, an exciting game lies up ahead and on that note, here are my three best betting tips from the NSW vs VIC match prediction.

NSW vs VIC Team Bet:

A major reason for Victoria’s downfall last season was their inability to get good starts when batting, ultimately leading to underwhelming performances. On the basis of the same, after going through all available options, I have picked the perfect team bet tip for you from the NSW vs VIC head-to-head encounter.

Victoria’s total at 1st dismissal to be low

Previously, the bookmakers had offered an ask of 27.5 runs and considering the match yielded a no result with no one day fixtures since, expect a similar take this time around too. Now, last season, Victoria played four games in the Marsh Cup, registering opening partnerships of 20, 22, 25 and 25 runs. Not once did they manage to cross the threshold, averaging a 23 runs stand for the first wicket – comfortably below the mark. Additionally, their opener Sam Harper has been struggling to score runs off late, his scores in the two recent Shield games against New South Wales being 1, 0 and 17*. As far as New South Wales’ bowling is concerned, they have a formidable attack that will be led by Ben Dwarshuis in all likelihood. The pacer averaged an excellent 18.75 in Marsh Cup 202/21, playing a key role in restricting opponents with the new ball. Barring Tasmania’s brilliant start, the first wicket partnerships against the Blues last season were worth 20, 11, 15 and 3 runs, coming to a paltry average of 12.5 runs. Thus, when all statistics are factored in, it seems like a given that Victoria will lose their first wicket without getting many runs on the board.

NSW vs VIC Player Bets:

No other Test playing nation can boast of as many star names in their regular domestic tournaments as Australia can. With both teams completely stacked with starpower, I have picked the perfect bet for you from the NSW vs VIC head to head encounter.

Daniel Hughes to score big

Daniel Hughes is exactly the kind of player people refer to when they say Australia’s domestic pool is unbelievably high in talent. The left-hand batter has 1,479 runs in 30 List A games at an astounding average of 56.88, including six centuries and seven half-centuries. Last season, he put in another brilliant shift racking up 160 runs in his three games at an average of 53.33, registering scores of 1, 101 and 58. The 32-year-old has been in great touch lately as well, scoring 59 and 89* in his latest outing against Victoria themselves in the Sheffield Shield. Even in the ongoing first-class game between the two sides, Hughes has registered another masterclass innings of 70 in the first innings. Over his last six matches across formats, the top order batter’s run aggregate reads an impressive 482 at a fantastic average of 48.20. Thus, Daniel Hughes seems primed to put up another big score, breezing past the target set for him against Victoria. To take up this NSW vs VIC player bet, head to PariMatch and accept their amazing odds once they are made available.

Peter Handscomb to excel

Another big gun pushing for a national comeback, Peter Handscomb is one of the most reliable players in domestic cricket. The capped Australian has 3,609 runs in over 100 List A games at an average of 38.80. His ODI numbers are equally impressive, with 632 runs from 20 innings averaging 33.26. Last season in the Marsh Cup, which actually took place just a few months ago, Handscomb had tallied 299 runs in just four outings at an astronomical average of 74.75. Against New South Wales, he had put up a decent haul of 31 runs, which is comfortably above the expected mark for the bet. The 30-year-old made his debut this season in the two recent Shield games against the Blues, where he aggregated a total of 247 runs across four innings with an average of 62.50, including a century and one fifty. Thus, given his track record and amazing form, Peter Handscomb should easily score past the threshold in the Marsh Cup fixture versus New South Wales.
