VCT vs NSW Team Bet:

The oddsmakers are yet to come up with odds for the forthcoming games. However, after a careful consideration of the past datas we have picked that one bet to make some handsome cash from in the VCT vs NSW team betting tip.

Victoria to score under 28.5 runs before 1st dismissal

Victoria will begin their campaign by facing New South Wales in the curtain raiser of the competition. Last season, they finished at the bottom of the table standings. Meanwhile, their opening pair also struggled to deliver a strong performance with the bat. Victoria's opening pair has revolved around these two players - Mackenzie Harvey & Jake Fraser-McGurk. Victoria posted scores of 13, 17, 58, 69 & 8 in their last five matches before the fall of the first wicket. This sums up to just 165 runs from four innings, averaging almost 33 runs per innings before 1st dismissal. Although this number seems pretty decent, the opening pair of Victoria have failed to post a total above our target thrice in the last five matches thus entailing a 60% efficiency. The openers have failed to gather runs and provide an explosive start to Victoria’s innings several times. Victoria’s scores in the last five head-to-head matches read - 8, 20 & 1 before the fall of the first wicket. This takes their average to 9.6 runs per innings before the fall of the first wicket which ranks certainly below our target. On the flip side, New South Wales has done a fine job until now and has managed to restrict the opposition’s opening partnership to score low for the first wicket. New South Wales leaked runs at an average of only 13 before the fall of the first wicket against the opposition they faced last season. Therefore, it shows that the New South Wales bowlers will not make it any easier for the already struggling opening pair of Mackenzie Harvey and Jake Fraser-McGurk. The numbers clearly work in favour of this betting tip thus making it a strong and a reliable one. Our affiliate partner 1XBET has offered odds of 1.832 in Victoria’s favour to score under 28.5 runs before 1st dismissal from the VCT vs NSW match prediction.

VCT vs NSW Player Bets:

We have chosen Hayden Kerr and Mackenzie Harvey to perform well for their respective teams in the VCT vs NSW player betting tips. Take a look below!

Moises Henriques to score over 31.5 runs

The Portuguese born Australian cricketer, Moises Henriques is my first player betting tip from the VCT vs NSW head-to-head contest. At one point in his career, he was considered as an extremely talented cricketer and the next big thing in Australia. He made quite a number of appearances but could not become a permanent fixture in the Australian National Team. Although he has featured in just 16 ODIs but holds an experience of about 116 List A games wherein he has aggregated a total of 2995 runs at an phenomenal average of 33.27 which ranks certainly above our target for this game. In the 2021/22 edition of The Marsh Cup, the Australian all-rounder amassed 82 from two games at an average of about 41.00. Henriques is coming off after having a fantastic season in The Big Bash League. Although his side Sydney Sixers lost to Perth Scorchers in the finals, the 35-year-old played a vital role in taking his team to the last two. With 440 runs from 16 matches averaging close to 36.66, Moises Henriques finished the season being the leading run-getter for his side and ranked 7th in the list overall. Against Victoria last time around in The Marsh Cup, Moises scored 39 off 41 balls which was laced with 5 fours. His scores in the last three head-to-head clashes against Victoria read 39, 12 & 98. We expect Moises to showcase a similar performance when the two sides go head-to-head tomorrow. Scoot over to 1XBET and place your bet on Moises Henriques at odds of 1.832 to score over 31.5 runs from the VCT vs NSW match prediction.

Mackenzie Harvey to score over 19.5 runs

Mackenzie Harvey, a 22-year-old player from East St Kilda can be a game changer for VCT in this forthcoming contest. This right-handed batter played many memorable innings for his team last season. He played for many big teams like Australia Under-19s, Australia Under-16s & Melbourne Renegades too. With his ability to change the fate of a game at any point, he is going to be an important player for his side. His best performance came in the previous season of The Marsh Cup 2021/22 wherein he finished being the top-scorer from his side. He hammered 155 runs from just 5 matches averaging 31.00 which ranks certainly above our target in this game. As for his List A career, he scored a total of 186 runs in 9 innings with an average of 20. In his last face-off against New South Wales he scored a brilliant 55 run knock off 72 deliveries and helped his team to chase down a big target but lack of support from fellow teammates made them the losing side. His scores in the last five matches read - 4, 3, 32, 61 & 8 runs. Although he is scoring a little low in the recent games, we expect him to hammer runs with the bat in this game. If you feel the same, scoot over to 1XBET and place your bet on Mackenzie Harvey at the best of odds from the VCT vs NSW head-to-head contest.
