The Marsh Cup 2022-23: South Australia vs Tasmania predictions, cricket betting tips, and odds

South Australia face Tasmania in the first game of The Marsh Cup 2022-23 on Wednesday, September 28, at the Allan Border Field in Queensland from 9:35 AM IST (Indian Standard Time). 

South Australia started their campaign in The Marsh Cup 2022-23 with an emphatic 61-run victory over Queensland in the opening game of the season in Brisbane. Benjamin Manenti and Nathan McAndrew smashed half-centuries as South Australia posted a formidable score of 278 runs in their first innings after an initial collapse. In reply, Queensland could only manage 217 in their chase. The hosts had a torrid time at The Marsh Cup last summer having won only one out of their six league matches.

Meanwhile, Tasmania will be playing their first game of the season. Tasmania finished second on the points table last season with 17 points in six games. The visitors are likely to miss their captain Matthew Wade for the major part of the season due to his international commitments. However, the Tasmanian side will still have the likes of Peter Siddle, Ben McDermott and Riley Meredith at their disposal. Tasmania had a successful season last time around and will be one of the top teams in this year’s competition.

Travis Head: The southpaw has scored 4542 runs in 118 List A matches at an average of 42.44. Head has also scored 1583 runs for Australia in this format at an average of 37.69. The 28-year-old is one of the most experienced batters in the South Australian setup and will play an important role in this domestic season.

Alex Carey: Along Head, the other player who would grab attention would be Alex Carey. The wicketkeeper-batter is one of the top contenders for Australia’s squad for the 50-over World Cup next year and his ability to score runs quickly makes him a top choice. Carey has scored 3058 List A runs at an average of 35.97. The 31 year-old has a strike rate of 86.82 and a top score of 128 not out in this format.

Tasmania top picks vs South Australia The Marsh Cup 2022-23

Peter Siddle: The right-arm pacer is the most experienced player on the Tasmanian side and will be a crucial part of the team within the leadership group in the absence of Mathew Wade. Siddle might not have the excess pace anymore but is still very lethal with the new ball early in the innings. Siddle has picked 91 wickets in 71 List A games at an economy of just 4.73. The 37-year-old pacer has also picked 701 wickets in 205 FC matches.

Riley Meredith: The 26-year-old has picked 33 wickets in List A cricket at an average of 32.75. Meredith can generate pace and bounce making him one of the most effective white ball bowlers going around. The right-arm pacer has also picked 58 wickets in just 21 FC matches.
