Tasmania won by 72 runs
Ed Cowan and Travis Birt continued Tasmania's undefeated run in the Ryobi Cup by setting up a 72-run victory over New South Wales, who were on top at the halfway mark. In the second block, Cowan and Birt combined for a 172-run partnership that drove the Tigers to 286 for 7, before the spin of Jason Krejza and Xavier Doherty sank the Blues.
Video row denies key hit for Blues
PRESSURE will mount on Cricket Australia to introduce video technology for attempted catches at all domestic one-dayers after a controversial call ruined NSW's hopes of beating Tasmania.
Tasmania, the defending champions, sit on top of the table with three wins from three games, proving themselves equally adept at the new split-innings format. New South Wales have won just one of their three matches.
