SYDNEY (Reuters) - Cricket Australia has expressed its disappointment that Australian Rules team the Adelaide Crows refused South Australia permission to host the Sheffield Shield final at Adelaide Oval later this month.

South Australia will now vie for a first title since 1996 in the domestic first class inter-state competition at Adelaide's 5,000 capacity Karen Rolton Oval from March 26 to 30.
