Queensland |While Queensland have just 1 win to their name from 3 matches, they are still at the top in the points table with 12 points. After two games ended in a draw, Queensland Bulls finally secured a win against Tasmania in their last Sheffield Shield match. Big hundreds from Khawaja, Renshaw, and Labuschagne led the comeback from Queensland as the defending champions posted 487-6 in the 1st innings. Pierson and Wildermuth are also reliable batters down the order and can help the team to a decent 1st innings total in case of an early collapse. To add even more depth to this Queensland lineup, there’s James Bazley at number 8 who is yet to deliver a significant performance in the season. He also adds more variety to the bowling attack that features Gurinder Sandhu, Jack Wildermuth, and Matthew Kuhnemann as the lead bowlers. The opposition has some big names in their batting department such as Cameron Green, Shaun Marsh, and Cameron Bancroft in the top-order. Khawaja might use all the available bowling options including Bazley and Labuschagne to get through a deep and strong batting order of Western Australia. Western Australia |Western Australia are just one point behind Queensland with 1 loss, 1 draw, and 1 win from their 3 matches so far this season. After a loss at the W.A.C.A against Tasmania, Shaun Marsh and company turned things around as Western Australia beat South Australia by 6 wickets at the same venue in the very next game. Now they will be taking on Queensland at The Gabba in Brisbane in a contest for the top spot in the points table. It was mostly the bowling attack that played a major role in Western Australia’s win in the last match. Jhye Richardson, Lance Morris, and Joel Paris were the standout bowlers with impressive spells in both innings. Gannon, Green, and D’Arcy Short are other bowlers in this squad to watch out for. All of them have the ability to provide breakthroughs and will be crucial for Western Australia. Skipper Shaun Marsh will be concerned about his own form and must be eager to find runs at number 3 while Bancroft will also need to lead as the opener. Cameron Green had a great season last year and along with Hilton Cartwright and Josh Philippe is the impact player in the middle-order. These three players can build crucial partnerships and led Western Australia to a competitive total against Queensland. WA need to find more consistency in the batting department and as such Bancroft, Marsh, and Green will be in key roles.
Queensland are favourites to win this match Queensland have their impact players in great form and if the bowlers continue to find success consistently, they can put Western Australia under pressure with early wickets. The visiting team’s top-order is their vulnerability and Kuhnemann and Sandhu can take advantage of it to give Queensland the upper hand in the contest. While the home team have odds of 1.73 indicating an edge over Western Australia, the visitors are only slightly behind with 2.10 odds that imply a healthy chance of a WA win at The Gabba. Sheffield Shield predictions take into account the current form, strengths and weaknesses of both squads, and potential impact players in both teams.
