The Comets are the premier team of the Cricket ACT who are affiliated with Cricket Australia. ==In the Domestic One Day Competition== The ACT Comets were participants in the Australian domestic limited-overs Mercantile Mutual Cup competition. They did not, however, field a team in the four-day Sheffield Shield competition. Their Mercantile Mutual Cup involvement lasted from the 1997–98 season to the 1999–2000 season. It was found that there was insufficient local support at that time to be financially viable in the first-class and list-A competitions. Former Australian Test bowler Merv Hughes was brought out of retirement to help ACT, as was former Test batsman Mike Veletta. ==In Second XI== , home of the ACT Comets.]] Today, the team represents ACT in the lower-level Second XI competition, a reserve grade to the Sheffield Shield. The Comets finished the 2005–06 season in fourth place with two outright wins. The Comets took out their first ever title in the 2010–11 season.
