What a comeback from the Blues tonight to finish the Victorians' hopes in this competition. Twice they looked down and out, first at 5/69 with the bat and then again when the Vics were 1/100 in the 12th over.

Steven O'Keefe was instrumental with the bat and the ball, making 50 and taking two wickets. Young Australian players Usman Khawaja and Aaron Finch both made 50s to continue their good form and show why they're so highly rated.

Steven O'Keefe has been named Man of the Match for his 50 with the bat and 2/28 with the ball. Thanks for your company tonight and don't forget the double-header on Monday night, Tasmania v SA and Qld v NSW. Good night
