Youth Club have batted themselves into the box seat for victory making 238 runs in their innings last week.

While they fell just shy of an outright win in their last outing if Youth Club can get early wickets tomorrow they could be a chance once again to take maximum points.

Youth Club quick Jarrod Illig is coming off a strong representative game in the Kirton Shield and if he is to repeat that bowling display they will be well on their way.

Illig will combine with Cam Kimber for a lot of the overs, but captain Jamie Solyom will also throw the ball to his key wicket taker Steve LeGassick.

Tatyoon needs a good opening partnership from Rob Glen and Jake McCartney to instil some confidence in the rest of the team.

Mitchell Cronin is coming off an innings of 51 in their loss to Pomonal and will need to produce a similar score if Tatyoon are to get close.

Tatyoon have a decent middle order consisting of Michael Harricks and Damian Cameron who regularly make starts, but don't go on with it.

While 238 seems like a large total to chase there is still one full innings to be played and anything could happen.

Aradale will waste no time chasing their remaining nine runs to win based on the first innings.

Chalambar put up a less than average total when they were all out for 110 last weekend.

Other than 39 runs from Scott Pilgrim, Chalambar had no significant scorers, giving their bowlers little to defend.

Aradale are currently four wickets down, but with the likes of Tyler Cronin and Matt Stasse still to come they have plenty of batting fire power in the sheds.

Josh Bywater was the most economical of the Chalambar bowling attack with only 18 runs hit off his 13 overs.

He will more than likely take the ball early tomorrow.

Buangor will be disappointed if they are unable to force an outright result against Pomonal, after the Tigers got off to a horror start last.

Pomonal were sent in chasing 261 and lost early wickets to find themselves in a mountain of trouble.

At 9/49 it looks only a matter of time before Pomonal is dismissed, unless the not out batsman Simon Donkers can produce an unlikely miracle.

Donkers is currently not out on 14, but while the score is not a huge issue, time spent at the crease is and they will need to occupy as much time as they can.

Ben Hargreaves tore through the Pomonal batting line up taking 6/8 from his 11 overs last week and will look to claim the last wicket as early as possible.

Buangor will no doubt send Pomonal back in straight away as they push to force an outright victory.
