    Victoria 2/79 with 48 overs remaining in the match. They require another 255 for outright victory

      Good to see Ashton Agar having a good match too. He's finished the season fairly strongly.

        So how many overs do we have to bat out?
        They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

            Its a funny game the Shield final. WA have obviously been the stronger side in the final itself - the top of the table is a huge advantage (I'm not disagreeing with it btw - just noting). Vics to hold on for dear life - hopefully we can bat it out only 3 or 4 down and finish strongly.

                Vics were never going to chase down the total so why in the hell did WA bat on this morning? In fact, why didn't they have a crack at the Vics for 5 overs last night?

                  I thought the same thing. They had nothing to lose but the final.

                    Yep. They had to make the running and gamble on losing by putting Victoria in last night for half an hour last night.

                      Congratulations Victoria on Sheffield Shield no. 29.



                      And thanks again to Lemmon for providing the link. I managed to watch the last few hours today, it was gripping and at least I got to watch Victoria win the shield.
