David Lowery - captain and opening bat for the Rangers - constructed a composed 60-run innings from 92 deliveries, before Lachlan Shaw, who had already scored a century and three fifties in the one-day competition, notched a superb ton.

The NSW Blues contracted rookie plundered 117 runs from just 114 balls, including six fours and three maximums, to propel the visitors to 6/252 from 50 overs.  

The Magpies could only muster 150 runs in response, as Josh Baker (3-29) and Charlie Anderson (2-7) dismantled any prospect of a Western Suburbs fightback.

Shaw was awarded the Michael Bevan Medal for Player of the first-grade Limited-Overs Cup final.
