"The result of Tasmania and Victoria's top of the table clash later this week could have a huge say on who will reach this summer’s final
With two rounds remaining, final positions in the 2023-24 Marsh Sheffield Shield are far from settled.
The top two sides will contest the final on March 21-24, with Western Australia the current back-to-back reigning champions.
Six points are on offer for an outright win and, with a potentially unlimited amount of bonus points available, the race is wide open."

The points system:
Teams get six points for an outright win, one point for a draw and no points for a loss.
Regardless of the result of the match, both sides then earn bonus points.
They'll earn 0.01 of a bonus point for every run over 200 they score during the first 100 overs of their first innings (for example: 350 runs after 100 overs gets you 1.5 bonus points) and 0.1 of a bonus point for every wicket they take during the first 100 overs of their opponent's first innings (for example: 10 wickets in the first 100 overs equals 1 bonus point).

"Tasmanian veteran Matthew Wade will open the batting for the first time in Marsh Sheffield Shield cricket as Victoria also welcome back star batter Matt Short for a blockbuster top of the table clash.
Wade and Short return from national duties for the penultimate round fixture beginning tomorrow at Blundstone Arena after helping Australia to a T20 series sweep in New Zealand last week.
Tasmania hold a slender 2.02-point lead over the Vics at the top of the 2023-24 standings and victory for the Tigers this weekend would likely secure them hosting rights of the Shield final."
