Victoria started the season with a couple of wins against Tasmania and Queensland. However, they suffered huge defeats in their last two games against New South Wales and South Australia. Not just the defeats but the manner in which Victoria lost the last two games should be a matter of concern for Victoria.
They lost to NSW by 140 runs, chasing a huge total of 336, whereas against South Australia, they could not defend 286 in the 50 overs and lost the game by 9 wickets with over 12 overs remaining.
Victoria's closest win came against Queensland. Batting first, Victoria scored 240 runs for 7 wickets. Marcus Harris top-scored for Victoria with 63 runs. All the other batters got into double figures. In defence, Queensland were closing to victory in the 35th over when the score was 3 for 152. However, the late strikes by Elliott and Murphy helped them close the game in the 50th over, getting Queensland all out for 234, and winning the game by 6 runs.
Sam Elliott, 10 wickets and Peter Seidel, 9 wickets, are two of the top three wicket-takers of this season so far. Captain Peter Handscomb is their top batsman. Victoria should forget about the last two defeats and concentrate on underperforming Western Australia. This is their best chance to break the series of defeats and get back to winning ways.
Key players: Peter Handscomb, Samuel Elliott, Todd Murphy, Peter Siddle
The wicket-keeper batter scored a magnificent hundred against Southern Australia in the last match. In his last 10 domestic 50-over matches, he has scored 271 runs. He also has three 30+ scores in the last five head-to-head matches against Western Australia.

At this stage of the tournament, Western Australia's position at the bottom of the table should surprise many cricket fans. They have a great squad, captained by Ashton Turner, which contains a mix of good international and domestic players. However, they have not been able to get wins under their belt.
Western Australia started the season with a couple of close defeats against New South Wales and South Australia. They lost to NSW by just 8 runs, chasing 288, whereas in an even closer contest, Western Australia lost to South Australia by 2 runs, chasing 167. Their only win of the season came against Queensland, where they chased down a 301 with 4 wickets to spare, thanks to the rearguard effort by Hilton Cartwright.
To add to the misery, their previous game was the worst of all. Western Australia batted first against Tasmania and were bundled out for just 53 runs. It's hard to imagine because, at one stage they were 52 for 2. Their last 7 batsmen scored 0 runs. It can't get lower than this. Tasmania needed just 51 balls to get to the target and a huge win over Western Australia.
Not sure how you get over defeats like these, but Western Australia will have to forget what happened against Tasmania and believe in their squad to have any chance of beating Victoria.
Key players: D Arcy Short, Cameron Bancroft, Josh Inglis, Ashton Agar
Cartwright has scores of 41, 30, 66* & 4 in the Marsh One Day Cup this season. Against Victoria he has remained unbeaten in two of the last three matches scoring the winning runs. Given his recent form, we back Cartwright to score over 22.5 runs in this fixture.

The weather on the match day at Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) is expected to be cloudy, with a medium chance of showers, most likely occurring in the morning. The temperature should range from a high of 19°C and a low of 11°C.
The venue of the match is Melbourne Cricket Ground. It is one of the oldest and most iconic cricket stadiums in the world. Since 1971, MCG has hosted numerous ODIs, including the 2015 World Cup final. It is the second biggest cricket stadium in of seating capacity, with a capacity of around 1,00,000 spectators.
Victoria and Western Australia have averaged 5.5 and 4.75 sixes per game, respectively. Given their powerful lineups, we expect over 7.5 sixes in this match.
This is such an even venue to play an ODI. Out of the 152 ODIs played at the MCG, 148 have ended in an outright result, with 75 wins for the teams batting first and 73 wins for the teams batting second. In general, chase suits modern-day batting well in even conditions. The team winning the toss should bat first here.
Both Victoria and Western Australia are struggling at the moment. Victoria, though are slightly better placed with a couple of wins whereas Western Australia must still be wondering what hit them against Tasmania. It was a soul-crunching defeat to say the least. We believe Victoria have a better chance against Western Australia in this game.
We predict that Victoria will defeat Western Australia.
