One round of the Marsh Sheffield Shield remains and Western Australia's opponent in the final could be decided by the bonus points system.

Jack Paynter explains to Josh Schonafinger just how that works and identifies what both Queensland and Victoria have to do to make it.

Then (at 7:00) Matt Short, possibly the most in-form player in the country, sits down with Jack to discuss his incredible season to date and how he can make it even better.

In the words of the great Bill Lawry: It's all happening!

Louis Cameron is in the state of Gujarat for the Test finale and details Josh Schonafinger and all the latest on what's been happening since the Aussies hit back in the third Test in Indore.
