AUS vs WI 1st Match Prediction

AUS vs WI Team Previews

Australia

Australia will debut with Steve Smith as the opening batter and that will certainly be something interesting to watch. The Australian betters average astronomical numbers against the West Indies. This includes Steve Smith, Travis Head, Marnus Labuschagne, and Usman Khawaja. 

The smart play here is to bet 'Over' on all the top-order batters individual runs. You are bound to get more right than wrong and will end up being profitable.  You can also look at someone like Marnus Labuschagne to score a century in this match. 

Australia's batting is simply too good and its bowling lineup is among the best that the world has ever seen. Pat Cummins has been in incredible form and could very well run through the West Indies batting lineup once more. 

West Indies

West Indies has come to Australia with little hope of winning but it does want to be competitive. That is easier said than done of course and their recent record is anything but interesting. None of the Test matches went into the final day on their previous tour and that in itself would be a 'win' for them. 

The batting lineup revolves around Kraigg Brathwaite at the top but there are some other promising batters also. Tagenarine Chanderpaul, Alick Athanaze, and Kavem Hodge are all likely to be a part of the playing eleven. They are decent players but not very experienced in Test cricket. 

We would not bet on any of the West Indian batters to score runs right now, though. That is just too big a risk with too many unknowns. 

The bowling lineup will expect something special from Alzarri Joseph and Shamar Joseph alongside the experienced Kemar Roach. If you believe in miracles, you can bet on the West Indies. Otherwise bet against them every opportunity that you get.
