While most eyes in the sporting world will be on the big second semi-final playoff between the Bears and the Snakes taking place in the Salad Bowl on Friday, we mustn't forget that the 2nd Test versus Umbria starts this weekend.

After the wash-out of the 1st Test both teams will be looking forward to a competitive match, with conditions looking perfect at the Costcuttle Ground in Jillhadi. Umbrian captain Majahid Ranmanakoolaban said "We're hoping for a good match. The ground is looking well-prepared, the weather is set fine, we're all strapped in and ready to go".

The five match Test series is vitally important to both teams, who are both currently tied in 3rd and 4th in the world rankings. Victory for either side will give them a spare berth in the World Cup that starts in the summer.
