Marnus Labuschagne raises his bat during the Matador BBQs One Day Cup match between Victoria and Queensland at Drummoyne Oval on October 18, 2016 in Sydney, Australia.

The Australian with the most experience playing in Townsville has predicted spin to play a big part in the contest with Zimbabwe on Sunday.

According to cricket.com.au's Josh Schonafinger, Marnus Labuschagne told reporters on Friday that the big takeaway from the three games he played at the ground was that spin posed a real threat.
