Following their 3-0 start to the One Day Cup 2025-26 Season, Tasmania will be playing their first home 50-over match of the summer against Western Australia starting at 10.30 am AEDT tomorrow.
After their best start to the ODC in years, Tasmania has been the form team of the competition, chasing down 312 against Queensland earlier in October in their last match.
The squad sees some change from their last win in Queensland.
Coming into the squad for his potential first game of the season, is Tasmanian 2024-25 Young Player of the Year, all-rounder Aidan O'Connor, who has recovered from an injury that has kept him out of the start of the season.
Also returning from injury is Billy Stanlake, after missing the past two One Day Cup games following a leg injury that occurred during the first week of the season.
Kieran Elliott, who has played plenty of First-Class cricket for Tasmania, comes into the squad to make his potential One Day Cup debut, after impressing with the red ball so far this season.
Ruwantha Kellopatha, a leg-spinner from Melbourne who made his debut for University in the Cricket Tasmania Premier League two weeks ago, also comes into the squad providing some spinning depth and lower-order batting to the Tasmanian Tigers line-up.
Missing this match is Australian trio Nathan Ellis, Matt Kuhnemann, and Mitch Owen, who are all part of the Australia One Day International squad that are playing against India today.
Also missing is Australian test player Beau Webster, who is still recovering from an ankle injury and is tracking for a return for the next Shield game in Victoria next week.
Riley Meredith is also managed after a heavy workload in the Sheffield Shield match last week in Tasmania.
Tasmania's 12-man squad for their match against Queensland is as follows:
- Iain Carlisle
- Nikhil Chaudhary
- Kieran Elliott
- Bradley Hope
- Caleb Jewell
- Ruwantha Kellopatha
- Ben McDermott
- Aidan O’Connor
- Jordan Silk
- Billy Stanlake
- Matt Wade
- Tim Ward
