West End Redbacks announce squad to face NSW

The West End Redbacks have today announced the 12-man squad that will face the New South Wales Blues in their opening day/night Sheffield Shield match at Adelaide Oval.

Experienced campaigner Mark Cosgrove and exciting youngster Kelvin Smith come into the side after missing out on a place in the 14-man Matador BBQ’s One-Day Cup squad that went all the way to this year’s final.

Both batsmen are coming off good form in the West End Premier League, with Cosgrove smashing 105 off just 85 balls for the Northern Mavericks’ last weekend against the Western Grit.

Kelvin Smith is high on confidence after a strong performance in the opening round of West End Premier Cricket, scoring a patient 91 to set up West Torrens in their match against Adelaide.  

The match will be available via live stream on www.cricket.com.au with play commencing at 2pm each day.
