Tasmania collapsed from 4 for 284 to 319 all out, and surrendered the initiative to South Australia, who reached 3 for 242 at the end of the second day of their Pura Cup match at Adelaide Oval. Dan Cullen cleaned up the tail, and ended with 4 for 96, the best figures for South Australia.
South Australia began their response shakily, losing Daniel Harris with just 13 runs on the board. But Shane Deitz was up to the task, and racked up an unbeaten 107 in 200 balls that set the stage for South Australia. Greg Blewett chipped in with 62, and Tasmania's lead was whittled down to 77 as South Australia ended the day on 3 for 242.
