Queensland Defend Imparja Cup Against Tasmania
February 14th 2009 04:02
The Imparja Cup Final teams have been settled with defending champions Queensland to meet Tasmania in the Final at Traeger Park today, a replay of the 2008 Final. The match will be broadcast nationally through NITV (Channel 180 on the Foxtel/Austar platform) from 5:30pm (Eastern Summer Time) on Saturday.
For the Queenslanders 19 year-old Cameron Trask has been the player to watch, taking out Player of the Tournament Honours, while for Tasmania Imparja Cup favourite Bernie Lamont will be a key to his side's chances.
In the women’s division New South Wales has this morning defended their title defeating the Bellete Cougars. The Bellette Cougars put up a brave fight against the strong New South Wales side that features NSW Breakers development squad player Sam Hinton. New South Wales scored 3-112, but received a scare from the improving Cougars who opened with a wave of clean hitting before falling 20 runs shy.
Another highlight of Final day will be the appearance of the Australian Cricketers Association Masters XI, who will take on an Indigenous All-Star XI from the tournament in a Twenty20 curtain-raiser to the men’s final. International stars such as Brad Hogg, Greg Matthews, Terry Alderman, Matthew Elliott and Ryan Campbell will take part in the match.
First held in 1994 as a Northern Territory community-based event between Alice Springs and Tennant Creek, the Imparja Cup has grown to become a premier fixture on the Australian cricket calendar.
The Imparja Cup is hosted by Northern Territory Cricket and Cricket Australia.
The Imparja Cup Final can be seen on Saturday on NITV at 5:30pm (Eastern Summer Time), while other matches will screen on NITV through March.
NITV can be found on Channel 180 on the Foxtel/Austar platform.
