As the Sheffield Shield race for a home final intensifies, VIC have drawn first blood in the battle of the founding teams.
The Tap of Massies are off to a flyer at 0/150 with DiVenuto leading the way with 96(118) in his second last match in Australia. Tragically Ballbag Bollinger is unavailable due to a foot injury and his penetration is being deerly missed. Curiously we choose to bowl on a flat track, sure Katto has a plan….
Meanwhile the Mexican’s with mobiles have struck early against the Westies with dangerman Langer falling lbw to Wise. Chris Rogers is off to a solid start however, and once he makes 20 he could be the very NSWelshman we need to stick around to hurt em.
Update: The stars are aligning – Rogers has come good and moved on to 44(69) taking the NSW rejects to 1/84. And Thornley’s taken a wicket so the Map of Tassies are 1/160 with DiVenuto on 102(131).
