Riley Meredith s return to state cricket has been delayed in bizarre circumstances after Tasmania revealed the fast bowler would have jeopardised Victoria s season if he were to play in Wednesday s Marsh One-Day Cup clash.
Tasmania had expected Meredith to play against an under-manned Victoria in the 50-over match at Melbourne s Junction Oval, but the tearaway will now join Ben McDermott (hamstring injury) and Matthew Wade (rest) in sitting it out.
Meredith shines on debut as Aussies win third T20I
Victoria head to Perth following matches in Brisbane next week and having contact with Meredith would have complicated their entry into Western Australia given that state s border is closed to New Zealand, from where the paceman returned on Sunday after Australia s T20 tour concluded.

The Melbourne Stars have missed the BBL finals for just the second time in their 10-year history, losing to the Sydney Sixers in a must-win match at the MCG on Tuesday night.
Requiring a maximum four points to make the finals, the Stars failed to claim the all-important bash boost point before eventually going down by five wickets with one ball to spare.
For a team boasting the likes of Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis and Adam Zampa â all who are white-ball internationals for Australia â itâs another lost opportunity for the Stars who are still without a BBL title.
