ABOUT THE MATCH
Victoria battle Queensland in the seventh match of the Marsh One-Day Cup 2019. The latter have won both of their opening two contests and will look to maintain their unbeaten run with another victory in this game. On the other hand, Victoria will be riding high on confidence after stealing a win against Tasmania in a bizarre, pulsating and mind-blowing encounter
TOSS PREDICTION
The previous record suggests that batting first is the right way, but the overhead conditions may favor bowling too.
PITCH AND CONDITIONS
This will be the first game to be played on this venue in this year’s competition and thus it is difficult to predict how the surface will behave. Having said that, one can still expect the surface to have something in it for both the batters as well as the bowlers, which should lead to a cracking contest between bat and bowl
PROBABLE PLAYING XI OF Victoria
Aaron Finch, Marcus Harris, Will Pucovski, Peter Handscomb, Nic Maddinson, Glenn Maxwell, Will Sutherland, James Pattinson, Chris Tremain, Jon Holland, Jackson Coleman
PROBABLE PLAYING XI OF Queensland
Sam Heazlett, Usman Khawaja, Marnus Labuschagne, Matt Renshaw, Joe Burns, Ben Cutting, Jimmy Peirson, Michael Neser, Mark Steketee, Matthew Kuhnemann, Billy Stanlake

Queensland
- After an abysmal batting display in the previous game, big names like Aaron Finch and Glenn Maxwell need to start firing on a consistent basis.
- On the contrary, Chris Tremain along with Jackson Coleman helped complete a remarkable rescue job for Queensland and will have their tails up going into this game.
