Shipperd confident of more success

The Victoria coach Greg Shipperd is aiming for a second away-from-home Pura Cup victory when they face Tasmania at Bellerive Oval from Friday. Victoria, who beat Western Australia by four wickets in their first match in Perth ten days ago, have named an unchanged squad for the fixture.

"We played some very good cricket in our first game at the WACA and the players gained a lot of confidence knowing that they can win matches away from Melbourne," Shipperd said. "That confidence and the solid form of the players has meant there are no changes for the game against Tasmania."

Victoria squad Jason Arnberger, Michael Klinger, Nick Jewell, Brad Hodge David Hussey, Jon Moss, Cameron White (capt), Adam Crosthwaite (wk), Shane Harwood, Mick Lewis, Gerard Denton, Allan Wise.
