- Notes
- a Perth-Canberra semi-final was not able to be played as a best-of-three series due to a COVID-19 outbreak in the Canberra team. After Game 2 in Canberra was cancelled, it was initially postponed to a best-of-two series determined by points spread.[4] However the rescheduled Game 2 in Perth was also cancelled after Canberra were unable to field a team.[5] Perth advanced to the Grand Final with a 1–0 series win.[6]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
