Victoria/PNG clash Sunday

VICTORIA will host Papua New Guinea in a Twenty20 clash at Casey Fields this Sunday as preparations for February’s Imparja Cup gain momentum.
Since the competition’s inaugural match in 1994, the Imparja Cup has evolved into one of the nation’s most cherished sporting carnivals that celebrate indigenous culture and cricket.
While Victoria, also known as Noogal Toengorrt Tani, is yet to etch its name on the silverware, coach Stuart Clark remains quietly confident about the squad he has assembled for next year’s tournament.
“You don’t want to be bullish about your prospects, but provided we give it our absolute best, then hopefully we’re good enough to get through to the finals and then who knows what can happen from there,” Clark said.
The match will start at 11am.
