NSW wins.

Probably Copeland for Player of the Match.

Would've been Swepson (10 wickets), if Q'land won.

Edit* Swepson got the award.

Boland makes it a 5fa. Nielson out for 43.

SA still needs 44 to make Vic. bat again.

Brilliant effort from Scott Boland, considering the run fests in this and the WA/Tas. match.

Tasmania 280. Needing 227 runs to win.

Wade 43*.

Maybe the Vics in will p and Harris batted too long making SA to make an easy draw to me that’s why it was a draw had Vics declared say an hour or 2 earlier then Vics would have won it

No. They batted carefully to stumps on the first day out of caution and then 4 sessions to make 564. If they'd declared 2 hours earlier, SA would have been leading by another 150 (that is, the 150 or so the Vics made in their last 2 hours) and might have struggled to make those extra runs batting in, say, a final session (assuming they had been able to get the last 2 SA wickets promptly).

Great to see NSW get the win was by 1 wicket was getting interesting towards the end but NSW just get over the line
