Redbacks vs Bushrangers trial game cancelled
South Australian Cricket Association - 8 October 2002

The Southern Redbacks vs Victorian Bushrangers trial one day match scheduled for Friday, October 11, 2002 has been cancelled.

The decision was made to ensure the Adelaide Oval pitch is ready for the first Pura Cup game of the season, on October 15.

Mr Harvey Jolly, Cricket Operations Manager, said the South Australian squad has had an exceptional pre-season, with more centre wicket practice time than in past seasons.

"The players have been working hard during the pre-season and have had about three extra weeks of practice time on centre wickets on Adelaide Oval no. 2. This takes the team into the season in very good shape.

With the last football match played just over a week ago, we decided that the Adelaide Oval centre wickets needed a few more days of preparation time to be in perfect condition for the first Pura Cup game next week," he said.
