Pitch Report
The Manuka Oval has been fantastic for batsmen, especially in the second innings. Pacers have a habit of getting early purchases from this surface. As a result, the captain who wins the coin toss must choose to field first. Anything under 160 will be difficult to defend on this pitch.
Weather Report
The weather is clear. There is no possibility of rain interrupting the match.

SCO vs HEA Must Picks
Sam Heazlett, a middle-order hitter, was chosen by only 18.02 percent of fantasy players for HEA’s first match against Sydney Thunder. The 26-year-old surprised expectations by returning with a total of 53 fantasy points after scoring 42 off 37 balls, helping him to become the third most selected batter for Wednesday’s encounter after Colin Munro and Chris Lynn.
Andrew Tye, a SCO pacer, has been in outstanding form recently in List A cricket. Tye has 11 wickets in his last five outings for Western Australia, making him the most selected player for the match. Despite Xavier Bartlett’s 62 fantasy points from the previous match, our bowling pick for this game is Andrew Tye.
Mitchell Marsh was Australia’s top performer in the T20 World Cup. Despite failing to take a wicket, the 30-year-old contributed important runs, including two half-centuries in the last three games. Although the SCO all-rounder is still a costly investment at 10 credits for this match, it is safe to say he is well worth it.
In terms of wicket-keepers, HEA’s Ben Duckett has been trusted by 90.51 percent of fantasy players after scoring 46 off 35 balls against Sydney Thunder. Duckett is still the best choice given his current form.
