Sheffield Shield: Rainbird stars again as Tasmania smash Queensland

Tasmania vs Queensland

Sam Rainbird tormented Queensland for the second day in a row as Tasmania fetched a massive win to push their bid to reach the Sheffield Shield final. Having already fetched eight wickets on the opening day, Rainbird was at it again in Queensland's second innings. He ripped through the batting lineup as they were bowled out for 82, faring a lot worse than they did in the first innings. Earlier in the day, skipper Beau Webster hit a whirlwind unbeaten 166 off just 172 balls as Tasmania posted 422 on the board. The lead of 318 was just too much to erase for a side that made just 104 in their first innings. Tasmania will now await the results of the other games to see if they can join Victoria in the final.
