Sheffield Shield Sheffield Shield The Sheffield Shield is the domestic first-class cricket competition of Australia. The tournament is contested between teams from the six states of Australia.

The competition is contested in a double-round robin format, with each team playing every other team twice, i.e. home and away. Points
