Big time cricket headed back to Lavington, two months after Big Bash

Just weeks after a massive crowd of more than 10,000 watched Sydney Thunder defeat Hobart Hurricanes in the Big Bash, arch rivals NSW and Victoria will meet from March 2-5.

The current Blues' team is captained by former Test player Kurtis Patterson and also features the likes of fellow internationals Moises Henriques, Sean Abbott and Adam Zampa, while Sydney Thunder stars Jason Sangha and Chris Green are regular contributors.

Cricket NSW CEO Lee Germon said Lavington Sportsground had proven itself during the BBL season, continuing the great relationship between cricket and the area.

"The Sydney Thunder match at Lavington Sportsground was one of the best matches of the BBL summer and we are really excited to bring more elite cricket to Albury," he said.
