VAC vs WAC Team Previews
Victoria
Victoria will host Western Australia for the next Sheffield Shield match. This is a tough fixture and Victoria will need to be at its best. Will Pucovski and Marcus Harris will lead the batting lineup and they have some very good batters to back them up as well. Peter Handscomb, Nick Maddinson, and Sam Harper help form the middle order.
Even Will Sutherland scored a century in the previous match.
Scott Boland is now a Test regular for Australia and adds a lot of attacking prowess to the bowling lineup. The rest of the bowling can be a bit flat, though, and Victoria could struggle to pick up 20 wickets.
Victoria Playing 11
Cameron McClure, Mitchell Perry, Ruwantha Kellapotha, Todd Murphy, Marcus Harris, Matt Short, Nic Maddinson, Peter Handscomb, Sam Harper, Will Sutherland, William Pucovski.
Western Australia
WA has been in tremendous form and comes into this match with a fair bit of momentum. Its batting is very strong with the likes of Bancroft, Whiteman, and Cartwright in the top order but it is young Teague Wyllie, who is likely to be the main attraction.
He is a classical sort of batter and has turned heads with his hunger for runs. Josh Philippe is also an excellent player to have in the lower order.
The strength of the bowling attack is also quite obvious. Matthew Kelly, Joel Paris, and Aaron Hardie ensure there is enough firepower to hustle the batters while Lance Morris and Rocchiccioli help provide support.
