Queensland have a tough match as they head South to Tasmania for this one. The Tassie batsmen are on form with 3 of there batsmen are in the top 5 for runs scored this FRC season (Dighton 1st - 371 @ 53, Marsh 4th - 298 @ 59, Birt 5th - 285 @ 57) and there bowling has been pretty good with Geeves the 2nd highest wicket taker with 12 scalps @ 21 and Geeves 3rd with 11 @ 31.
Queensland though have been putting in a good team effort all year, and whilst they may not have any shining players they are coming 3rd, just 1 point behind second place Tasmania and Queensland have a match in hand. A great game this will be no doubt and it will be hard to pick a winner which is proven by the fact both teams are favourites. I'm tipping Tasmania because they are at home and the Tasmanian conditions aren't easy to adapt to straight away. If Dighton and Geeves fire, they should do it comfortably.
