The retiring Novocastrian has bookended her domestic-cricket career with a history-making WNCL title for Tasmania, more than a decade after winning her first with NSW.

It was the sweetest of victories for Hall, who wasn't even required to bat during the Tigers' run chase in Hobart on the weekend, as she called time on her professional innings.

IN THE NEWS:

"It's been a hard one to come down from if I'm honest, it's been a long time coming and we've been embracing every single moment since Sunday," Hall told the Newcastle Herald.

"I've been wearing some form of Tassie Tiger or ever Tassie Roar gear around the last couple of days just embracing it all.

"For everything to go to plan like it did, you couldn't have written a better script."

The 34-year-old, who was born in Gosford but grew up in Newcastle, feels like the time was right to pull up stumps following a nine-wicket win for Tasmania (1-245) over South Australia (8-242) in the 50-over final.

"That's the last game. Definitely in a Tassie shirt and in terms of Big Bash as well I'm pretty done," she said.

"I had a shoulder operation and a hip operation to get through this season and to give myself a chance.

"We got so close last year and I really felt like I could have one more year. Sal [Tigers coach Salliann Briggs] believed in me in that regard and wanted me to go out my way.

"I couldn't have asked for a better way to have my final game.

"Playing at Blundstone Arena, which has basically become my home ground now and is a special place for me, and with that group of girls who have worked so hard over the last three or four years in particular to get that shot."

Hall admits it was a much different experience in 2021-22 compared to striking success with the all-conquering Breakers in 2008-09.

"The first year I played with NSW we won, beat Victoria at the SCG," she said.

"I look back now and I've bookended my career, which is unreal, but I didn't really contribute much to that. We had a great side with nine Aussie players so I was more like a specialist fielder.

"This one feels more like a body of work and like I've really earned every part of that little medal."

Tasmania had never held aloft the WNCL trophy previously and Hall, who has also skippered the Hurricanes in WBBL, was there since the Tigers' inception in 2010.

Around four years ago she relocated from Sydney to Hobart when the women's state program became full-time.

Hall, who attended school at Gateshead and Hamilton's SFX, started her cricket journey by filling in aged seven at Dora Creek and featured in Newcastle's junior representative ranks before joining Bankstown.

Hunter leg-spinner Maisy Gibson was also part of Tasmania's first XI, taking 0-48 from 10 overs in the showdown.
