Buckley missed the start of the clash but comes in for coach Justin Ward.
He’ll be a boost to their top order after making 31 and 27 in his last two innings.
With a big total to chase down at Robertson Oval on Saturday, Ward is looking for some resilience from the side.
“I think it’s a good opportunity for us to show what we are made of,” Ward said.
“The 320 is plenty of runs but they batted well and took their opportunities so you deal with it.”
Ward wasn’t too disappointed with the bowling effort after having the Bulls a 4-151 before letting it slip away late.
Beck Frostick and Brendan Gale have led the charge with the bat so far and St Michaels needs a big team effort.
“We need to bat in partnerships and probably need one bloke to go on and get a hundred,” Ward said. “I think we need a bit of mental toughness to bat our 80 out.”
