But in the last 5 games, the team who batted first have won 3 matches on this ground out of which 2 victories are by an inning. It will be good for the team to win the toss and choose to bat first on this ground.

Our Prediction

New South Wales have delivered a superb cricketing performance so far in the tournament by ticking up all the fields together. They have the upper hand in the bowling department over Tasmania. Similarly, on the other hand, Tasmania have struggled in the season so far and they will be looking to challenge toppers on Saturday which will be a huge challenge for them.

We predict that New South Wales will defeat Tasmania.
