Friction and fractures: The forgotten game in SA's last Shield triumph
Before the final day drama of the title clash, South Australia were involved in an even more intriguing encounter on their way to the Shield title in 1996
In keeping with our commitment to reconciliation, Cricket Australia acknowledges the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the lands on which we are privileged play and administer the great game of cricket. Our Head Office is located on the land of Wurundjeri People of the Kulin Nation (East Melbourne, Victoria). The National Cricket Centre is located on the land of the Turrbal and Yuggera clans of the Brisbane River Basin (Albion, Queensland). We pay our respects to Elders past and present.
Our Walkabout Wickets symbol by Kirrae Whurrong artist Fiona Clarke (b.1963), represents cricket stars past, present and future, and the meeting places where they play. Aunty Fiona is a descendant of James 'Mosquito' Couzens. He and his brother Jonny Couzens were members of the first Australian cricket team ever to tour England – in 1868.
