The two teams had vastly contrasting lead up to this match. Going into the final round of the season, the Bushrangers had already earnt the right to host the final and proceeded to demolish Queensland by an innings and 11 runs. The Redbacks on the other hand looked in trouble in the first 2 days against cellar dwellars Tasmania but overcame a first innings deficit of 107 runs to eventually comfortably win by 193 runs. In addition, they had to watch nervously as NSW fell 6 runs short in an improbable last day 400 run chase.
The Vics won both of their clashes this season, by 5 wickets at the MCG in November and the return clash by 124 runs in Adelaide Oval during February.
VIC XII
Out:
In the only other match played at Traeger Park in Round 9, the Vics went with the second spinner in Fawad Ahmed at the expense of Boland.
SA XIII
Out:
Richardson withdrew from the squad to face Tasmania with back soreness and his replacement Mennie took a game high 9 wickets in his absence. With fellow quick Worrall also taking 7 wickets in that match, it will be a tough call on whichever fast bowler misses out.
