Gulbis 229 at #8 for Tigers.

[Donny]

Evan Gulbis made the highest, non-Test, and second highest first-class score for a No.8 batsman - after Wasim Akram's 257 against Zimbabwe at Sheikhupura in 1996 - and then took 4 for 7 to spearhead Tasmania's innings-and-316-run victory against South Australia in Hobart.

Needing 439 to make Tasmania bat again, South Australia was dismissed for 123 in 47.1 overs in their second innings.
