REFRESHER | 2023/24 Marsh One-Day Cup
THE 2023/24 Marsh One-Day Cup season gets back underway on Thursday, with just six home-and-away fixtures left to play. Defending champion Western Australia leads the way in search of a third-straight title, sitting level on points alongside Victoria with each team having played five games.
The six sides will turn out twice more each to complete the season which began all the way back in September. In the last fixture before the break (November 20), Western Australia jumped back into top spot with a four-wicket win over last season’s finalist, South Australia at the WACA Ground.
Only the top two ranked regular season teams will qualify for the final, with five teams mathematically still in the running. New South Wales (3-2) is the closest challenger to WA and Victoria, while Tasmania could pounce from 2-3, and Queensland is dependant on plenty to scrape into second.
