Richardson caught Mackenzie Harvey at slip before finding Nathan McSweeney’s edge two overs later. He scored a hat-trick after Hilton Cartwright’s juggling catch sent off Jason Sangha for a first-ball duck.

The entire WA team erupted in a huge cl of a bell as the ball peared to be on its way to off stump, but the umpire refused. Spinners Ashton Agar and Corey Rocchiccioli chipped in with two wickets iece alongside paceman Liam Haskett as South Australia folded meekly.
Jake Weatherald (40) was the home side’s top scorer before being beaten by Agar, while Ben Manenti remained unbeaten with 38 points. WA’s second innings never got going, with Brendan Doggett and Liam Scott doing most of the damage as the visitors went from 35 for 1 to 74 for 6 by the end of the day. It was a stark contrast to the first day when only three wickets fell.
WA opener Cameron Bancroft went into the crease on Thursday unbeaten with 156 points and his team was well placed at 3-304. The former Test opener worked his way to 186 before being caught brilliantly on the boundary by Doggett, who had to throw the ball as he tripped over the rope before coming back to complete the catch. Corey Wasley made a solid unbeaten 60 from 57 balls to help extend WA’s total before declaring.
