With players away on One Day International duty, this game has less significance for Test team selections.

Holland took five wickets in the first innings for Victoria.

The game is low scoring. I was confusing Tremain and Boland, but one of them seems to be bowling some  quite quick stuff. Although sheer speed is hard to decipher to the naked eye when one views the speed gun. Jackson Bird was accurate, without being threatening. Apparently he swung the ball fair bit at dusk yesterday.

Without the injured Doolan,  and Bailey and Faulkner on ODI duty, this is a pretty weak Tasmanian team. Jordan Silk looked to have class with the bat, playing some nice shots in a well compiled unbeaten 50. Not much else to report after the second day.


As a spectator a few of us see the pink ball more easily than the red ball in daylight.
