This is a virtual quarter-final between the two teams which are both on six points off their five games, with the winner ending up in the top three and going through to the next round. On the other hand, the losing side will need to hope that Queensland can not only get the better of New South Wales Blues in the last league game but also make it a one-sided game to push the Blues’ net run-rate below theirs.

Stan James offers 8/11 for a Tasmanian win while Western Australia go in at 6/5 (bet365) if they win the game.

In the first game that these two sides had played, the Tigers had crushed the Warriors by 63 runs. The Warriors had come back well to defeat New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland in their next three to ensure that they are still with a chance to make it through to the next round.

Chris Gayle has been a clear stand-out performer in the tournament for his team so far. A 30-ball 61 propelled his side to a win over the Blues and in the absence of Shaun Marsh, the other in-form aggressor in the side, he smashed a 40-ball 92 in the previous game against the Bulls. Marsh will continue to miss this game given his international commitments which will put Gayle under the spotlight.

After their win over the Warriors, Tasmania were defeated by Queensland and crushed by South Australia and won against New South Wales and Victoria.

They may not have Tim Paine at the top of the innings who is with Australia right now and that will put the pressure on Mark Cosgrove and captain George Bailey to come up with the goods. One also gets the sense that Ryan ten Doeschate needs to convert his starts into something more substantial to help his side in the middle-order.
