299-4 represents a vast improvement on the previous pathetic batting performance. Brave changes were made by dropping Neil Larkin and Daniel Solway plus the unavailability of Peter Nevill (wife giving birth), Sean Abbott (injured), Moses Henriques and Josh Hazlewood meant opportunities for promoting youngsters Matthew Gilkes, Jason Sangha, Jack Edwards, Lachlan Hearne, Baxter Holt and Liam Hatcher.

The 32 all out was the second time this season New South Wales have been bundled out cheaply after they made just 64 in their other match against Tasmania, although remarkably came back to win that match when they scored 522 in the second innings.

While Abbott (525 runs at 75.00) and Henriques (633 runs at 70.33) have led the way, with Nevill (320 runs at 35.55) chipping in, much of the New South Wales batting has not delivered. Nick Larkin, Daniel Solway, Daniel Hughes and Kurtis Patterson are all averaging under 30, although Patterson scored a century in the previous match against South Australia.
