Tasmania have been a shadow of themselves compared to the previous season. They ended the league stage in the previous season in second place but lost the final against Western Australia. In this season, however, after eight games so far they have managed just two wins with four losses and two draws. They are currently at the bottom of the table with 27.01 points.
Tasmania played their first game against Victoria, which ended in a draw. After that, they played a doubleheader against the defending champions Western Australia, losing both of them. The first one they lost by 6 wickets, while the second one was an even bigger loss, by an innings and 45 runs. In the second innings of that innings loss, Tasmania were bundled out for just 98 runs. As many as 7 Tasmanian batters were out for single digits, 3 of them for naught.
Then Tasmania played against their current opponents, Queensland, in the fourth game. It ended in a draw. Tasmania's Jake Weatherald scored 186 runs, followed by Jake Doran, who scored 101. Tasmania had to bat only once scoring 461. Queensland had to follow on but the match ended in a draw. In the last four games, Tasmania managed two victories against New South Wales and Victoria while losing twice to South Australia.
Jack Doran is the top batter for Tasmania, scoring 644 runs in the last 10 matches at an average of 35.78. He is followed by Jake Weatherald, who averages 44.71 in the last 8 innings, scoring 626 runs. In bowling, Kieran Elliott is the top wicket-taker, taking 34 wickets in the last 7 matches at an economy of just 3.2. Gabe Bell has bowled well as well, taking 27 wickets in the last 8 matches. Tasmania need good performances from their top players to get a win in this game against Queensland.

Queensland performed pretty poorly in the last season, ending the league stage at the bottom of the table with just 2 wins after 10 games. They lost as many as 6 games in the previous season. This season hasn't gone well so far. They find themselves in a similar situation after 8 games. They have won 2, lost 3, and have managed to draw 3 games with 28.45 points. Queensland are in the 5th place in the points table, just above Tasmania.
Queensland could not find a win in the first five games of this season. In the first five games, they lost to Victoria and South Australia while drawing their games against Tasmania, New South Wales, and West Australia. The losses were comprehensive as Queensland lost to South Australia by 129 runs while they lost to Victoria by 90 runs.
Queensland's first victory was against Victoria. It was a low-scoring game where Queensland back at first scoring 172 but they caught Victoria all out for 123 in their first innings. Xavier Bartlett took five wickets for 32 runs in that game, followed by Mark Steketee who took three wickets for 32 runs. In the second inning, Queensland managed to 23 thanks to wicketkeeper Jimmy Pearson's 82-run innings. Defending a target of 273, they got Victoria all out for 249, winning the match by just 23 runs. Their second win was even more comprehensive as they defeated NSW by a margin of 188 runs.
Jack Clayton is the top scorer for Queensland with 594 runs in the last 9 matches at an average of 39.6. He is followed by Ben McDermott who has 588 runs in the last 10 matches at an average of 34.59. Mitchell Swipson leads the bowling attack with 29 wickets in the last 10 matches with an economy of 3.31. Mark Steketee has done well taking 27 wickets in the last 9 matches at an economy of 3.19. Queensland may not be able to make it to the finals this season but they would like to have as many wins under their belt as they can before the end of the season.

The weather on the match day at Bellerive Oval, Hobart is expected to be partly cloudy with temperatures ranging between a high of 19°C and a low of 38°C. There is a 10% chance of rain on the first day of the match. There might be some assistance for the bowlers in the initial phases. However, given the history, the teams might still want to bat first at this venue.
The venue of the match is Bellerive Oval, Hobart. It is Tasmania's premier cricket ground and one of the key sports venues in Australia. The ground was established back in 1914 and was redeveloped in 1987. The venue has hosted several international cricket matches including Test, ODI, and T20s. The ground has a seating capacity of around 20,000 spectators.
The venue at Hobart is predominantly a bat-first venue. A total of 12 tests have happened here with outright results. The teams batting first have won 9 of them, while the teams fielding first have won 3. There seems to be a clear advantage for the teams batting first. The team winning the toss should bat first here and try to put on a big score first up.
This is a match between the two worst teams of this Sheffield Shield season. While Queensland and Tasmania had won an equal number of matches, Queensland managed more draws compared to Tasmania. That is the only thing in favor of Queensland against Tasmania. We believe with a small age, Queensland might be able to beat or conjure a draw against Tasmania in this game.
We predict that Queensland will defeat Tasmania.
