WA have claimed a second straight victory and jump to second spot on the Big Bash table winning by 24 runs.

The Bushrangers never got goin and the bowling effort from the Warriors was superb. Brad Knowles, Ashley Noffke and Aaron Heal all bowled beautifully to restrict Victoria.

The Bushrangers have lost their second straight match. It is the first time that has happened in the history of this competition.

Man of the Match is Ashley Noffke for his superb spell. He bowled beautifully having been granted a return to the side in the absence of Mitch Marsh.

South Australia need only beat Tasmania on Tuesday night to host the final.

Victoria must win against Tasmania on friday to stay alive whilst WA meet Queensland in their last qualifying match to see if they can qualify for the preliminary final.
