Warragul & Drouin Gazette

Finals berths on line in T20s

-

The final round of Warragul District Cricket Associatio­n’s T20 competitio­n will be played tonight after last week’s matches were reschedule­d due to forecast extreme heat.

Spots in Sunday’s final will be on the line in A grade, with each team entering the final round with one win from two games in an even competitio­n. Hallora will host Buln Buln, while Western Park will take on Neerim District with the victorious sides from tonight’s matches to win through.

Ellinbank enter the final round all-but assured of a spot in the B grade decider. Their opponent Drouin may need to win to join them in the final, with Jindivick level on points to take on a winless Yarragon.

Western Park and Garfield-Tynong will play off in C grade regardless of results tonight. The undefeated Warriors will take on a winless Iona, while the Titans will play Bunyip who have one win.

Third-placed Longwarry will be unable to challenge with a final round bye.

Undefeated to date, Jindivick will have a test on their hands with second-placed Warragul needing to defeat the Jumping Jacks to join them in the final.

Third-placed Buln Buln is hot on the heels of Jindivick, with the Lyrebirds to enter favourites against the winless Western Park.

Drouin are out of contention with a final round bye.

The T20 finals will be played at Bunyip on Sunday.
