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
Missing the likes of star batsmen Steve Smith, David Warner and Moises Henriques to the Indian Premier League, the Blues instead leaned on 20-year-old Jack Edwards who scored 108 in the home side’s modest 8-251.
Sean Abbott (4-23) then did much of the damage with the ball, as the visitors were cleaned up for just 149 in 40.3 overs.
