Q: The Australian Police Cricket United Kingdom Tour 1989

In December 1988, The Australian Police Cricket Championship was played at the grounds of the Sydney University. This was the Bi-Centennial of Australia.

Police Cricket Association were invited from all States and Territories of Australia. Unfortunately, not all States and Territories accepted the invitation to participate. The competing Teams came Queensland, N.S.W., Victoria, ACT and South Australia. NSW nominated a second XI to balance the draw.

The Championship was convincingly won by NSW.

At the Championship Dinner, an Australian Merit Team was announced. The NSW President announced that a proposed Australian Police Cricket Tour of the United Kingdom would be undertaken in July 1989
