The Regional Big Bash T20 round followed by a regulation bye means that Wingham have not played since their October 14 loss to Wauchope RSL.
He said the side is hopeful of a strong run heading into the mid-season break.
“The boys are keen to get a decent bat and get a good running heading into Christmas,” he said.
A number of changes to the squad are expected for their clash with Macquarie Hotel on Saturday.
Scowen said he only recognises a few Macquarie players and hopes his side can “manage the unknown”.
He will be noticeably absent from their match, as he will turn out for North Coast in the NSW Country Championships at Inverell.
He said he was “very excited” to represent North Coast this weekend.
“It’s a good side with three State players in it,” he said.
“It’s a really high standard of cricket.”
He expects to bat at first drop or number four.
He will be the sole Manning representative in the team.
