The Pura Cup (formerly known as the Sheffield Shield) is the domestic first class cricket competition in Australia. Each of the state teams play in a round-robin series of home and away 4-day matches against every other team, followed by a final. A separate limited overs competition known as the ING Cup runs concurrently.
