Dubbo will host cricket’s Western Zone Premier League Final against Bathurst this Sunday at No.1 Oval.

This match will top off a busy week for skipper Marty Jeffrey who led Western against Newcastle in the Plan B Big Bash T20 Final on Tuesday.

Both men’s and women’s Zone teams have proven to be champions of both 20- and 50-over white ball cricket this season, winning their respective Country Regional round robin series.

Bathurst batsman Cooper Brien and fast bowler Ben Parsons will also head to South Australia with the Bush Blues in January along with the NSW Country Women’s team, captained by Kim Churchland (Cowra), Calle Black (Wellington, Bathurst), Emma Hughes (Dubbo), and Madi Spence and Ella Tilburg.

This week has seen teams from all over Country NSW competing in State Cup Under 12s, Under 13s and Under 14s, while the Bradman Cup Under 16s head to Albury in the new year to compete for higher honours.
