Australia is likely to field a near full-strength team for the return clash with Chinese Taipei at Geelong Baseball Centre on Sunday night

Baseball Victoria spokesman Rob Cioffi said manager Jon Deeble was likely to have a core group of seven established players as the base for the team

"That group would be complemented by those being considered for selection for the World Baseball Classic in Florida next month" Cioffi said

He expected Australia to field one of their best line-ups

"Among the stars for Geelong fans to watch are infielder Justin Huber, outfielder Tom Brice, infielder Brad Harman, utility Brett Roneberg and infielder Luke Hughes" he said

"They are just the hitters
And pitchers Craig Anderson and Phil Stockman are Silver Medallists from Athens as well"

Sunday's match, which starts at 7.30pm at Geelong Baseball Centre, is the eighth and final match of the Financial Wealth International Challenge between Australia and Taipei

Australia held on to an 11-10 win at Waurn Ponds on Wednesday night to take a 3-1 lead in the series
Cioffi said Taipei's fightback showed the team was obviously treating the series seriously

Australia will play the visiting Chiba Lotte Marines on Monday night, starting at 7.30pm, and on Tuesday, starting at 3.00pm
