No rain is expected across the shire on Friday or Saturday, with the temperature on game day expected to be a perfect 25 degrees.
While play was able to go ahead last weekend at Yanco and Narrandera, skies threatened all day after a wet evening the night before.
However, dry pitches should greet players this weekend when the second round of the 40-over format gets underway.
At Mark Taylor Oval, the Leeton and District Cricket Club will be going up against Narrandera, while the Stags and the LSC Colts will go head-to-head at Yanco Sportsground.

The L&D CC Ferrets will be hoping to capitalise on their solid start to the season by picking up a win over the Carpheads, who are yet to win a match this season.
This game will be the first to be played at Mark Taylor Oval this season after the scheduled Twenty20 matches were washed out on October 24.
Meanwhile, the LSC Colts will be gunning for a third victory in what has so far been a consistent return for the club to the competition.
The Stags bowled well last week against the Ferrets, but will need to dig in with the bat if they are to record their first victory of the new season.
