New South Wales claims One-Day Cup after beating Western Australia in final
The depth of New South Wales men’s cricket was again on display, as a Blues line-up trimmed of many of its stars beat Western Australia by 102 runs to take out the One Day Cup at Bankstown Oval.
Key points:
- Jack Edwards impressed with the bat with a century for the Blues
- Sean Abbott was the most productive of the Blues’ bowlers with 4-23
- The Warriors were dismissed for 149, chasing 252 for victory
