Marsh One Day Cup 2021, Match 8: NSW vs WAU Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing 11, Pitch Report and Injury Update

Match Details:

The 8th match of the Marsh One Day Cup between New South Wales and Western Australia will be played at the North Sydney Oval in Sydney, on 14th March, Friday.

This match will start at 04:30 AM IST and 10:00 AM local time. 

Preview:

New South Wales are taking on Western Australia in their next fixture of the Marsh One Day Cup. New South Wales are at the second spot in the points table with two wins against Victoria and South Australia. It has been an all-round performance by the Blues, with everyone stepping up when needed. Their bowling attack includes the intimidating trio of Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood and Sean Abbott, which will be fierce for the opposition. With David Warner and Josh Hazlewood back in the team, New South Wales are a team to beat this season.

On the other side, Western Australia will be aiming to bounce back from the defeat against Queensland last Thursday. Sam Whiteman was the only batsman from their lineup who fought hard and registered a half-century at top of the order. They have won three out of the last four games against New South Wales. But with relatively a younger side, it will take a great effort to beat the Blues on Sunday.
