Woomera won the toss and elected to bat and raced off to a fast start with Pillar hooking the first ball of the day from Brad Cox for six.

The opening pair of Pillar and Willis, taking advantage of the quick outfield and shortened boundaries, scored at four runs per over during their partnership, with several easy chances being put down.

Ryan Selkirk at second slip finally held one for the Swaggies, dismissing Willis for 10 off the bowling of Cox - his first wicket at Wanderers.

Some tight bowling slowed the run rate and the Redbacks entered the drinks break at 2/ 63.

Two quick wickets to Jason Carroll after the break had the Wanderers on the front foot and it could have been worse for the Redbacks if it wasn't for a Herschel Gibbs World Cup style dropped catch on the fence.

This seemed to open the floodgates for the Redbacks and some hard hitting from Taylor (27) and McArdle (25) pushed the score past 100.

Young Dylan Male's slow off spin claimed three quick wickets, while Couzens (22no) continued to hit out at the other end.

The Redbacks were finally dismissed in the 39th over for a very competitive 160.

Ryan Selkirk and Craig Wilson were on the front foot early against the Redbacks opening bowlers with Selkirk hitting the fence at regular intervals.

The opening partnership reached 49 before Selkirk (29) had his castle disrupted by Payne.

It could have been worse for the Swaggies if Wilson had been caught at short cover off a sharp chance. Damien Smith and Wilson pushed the score above 100 with mainly boundaries and sixes.

Leg spinner Taylor was very unlucky having Wilson dropped at deep backward square several times in the space of a couple of overs.

Wilson passed 50 before the reintroduction of Searle back into the attack produced immediate results with four quick wickets. He removed Smith for 30 and Wilson 59 to place the Swaggies under some pressure to make the runs.

Twenty-five were need off the last five overs, but some late order hitting from Carroll (20no) ensured the Swaggies a win with two overs to spare.
