The 2017–18 Sheffield Shield season was the 116th season of the Sheffield Shield, the Australian domestic first-class cricket competition. It started on 26 October 2017 and finished on 27 March 2018.[1] The opening round of matches were played as day/night fixtures[2] and the first three rounds of matches took place before the Ashes series.[3] Victoria were the defending champions.[4]
In round two of the competition, Mitchell Starc became the first bowler to take a hat-trick in each innings of a first-class cricket match in Australia.[5] He became the second Australian, and the eighth bowler overall, to do so in a first-class match.[6]
In the final round of fixtures, Tasmania beat the defending champions, Victoria, by 156 runs to advance to their first Sheffield Shield final since the 2012–13 season.[7] They faced Queensland at Allan Border Field in Brisbane.[7][8] In the final, Queensland beat Tasmania by nine wickets to win their eighth title and their first since 2012.[9][10] This was also the final season for Doug Bollinger, Ed Cowan, Ben Cutting and Michael Klinger.[11]
