Tasmania demolish Victoria by nine wickets

Tasmania beat Victoria by nine wickets in a rain-reduced match thanks to a half-century on debut by Jonathan Wells, and superb late-over bowling by Jason Krejza and Rana Naved-ul-Hasan

Match Centre

Great win for the Tigers. They bowled and fielded brilliantly to restrict the Bushrangers to 8 for 107 and then Wells and Bailey have raced to the victory target in just 11.3 overs. Wells played really well as a stand-in opener for the absent Tim Paine. His 51no off 33 balls featured some outstanding strokeplay and he was supported firstly by Rhett Lockyear and then by the skipper George Bailey.
