Victoria beat Tasmania, Victoria won by 84 runs (D/L method)

They come from everywhere to celebrate, all scurrying to grab a stump as a momento. Finally the Vics have won a One Day Final, the first since the 1998-1999 season.

The Tigers started well restricting the Vics to just 3/75 off their first 20 overs. After cruising to 2/54, Andrew McDonald changed the course of the game with two wickets in an over as the Tigers collapsed.

Hodge swung hard and led the Vics into an imposing position before Nannes finished the job in stage two. Nannes - with 3/29 - was named Man of the Match.

That's all from me, thanks for your company today and congratulations to the Victoria Bushragners, 2010-2011 Ryobi Cup Champions. Good night
