The domestic one-day competition of Australia Marsh Cup 2021/22 was concluded with an exciting final as Western Australia (WA) won the title. They defeated New South Wales(NSW) by 18 runs. The fielding standard of Australian players has been quote high and Hilton Cartwright displayed it in the game. Winning the toss, Western Australia elected to bat first. They scored 225/9 in the first innings. Jhye Richarson was the highest-scorer with 44 runs. Daniel Sams and Adam Zampa picked three wickets each.
In response, the opposition started well and openers scored 42 runs for the first wicket but then their wickets fell at a regular interval. Moises Henriques was the highest run-scorer for the team with 43 runs and was looking in good touch but Cartwright’s brilliant fielding sent him packing. Andrew Tye was the leading wicket-taker for WA.
On the first ball of the 44th over, Henriques advanced down the track to attack D’Arcy Short down the ground. Cartright was fielding at long-on a bit widish but he sprinted towards his left and grabbed the catch diving full-length to his left.
Catch of the summer?!
