Regex question to have substring match given strings

Question

I want regex to combine

".*SimpleTaskv9MoreDetails.*"

or

".*SimpleTaskv10MoreDetails.*"

How can I create regex to match both of them? I know that below one matches v8 and v9

".*SimpleTaskv[89]MoreDetails.*"

But if I want both v9 and v10 to be accepted? How do I do it?

Use alternatives:

.*SimpleTaskv(?:9|10)MoreDetails.*

If you want to generally match your existing pattern but with any non-zero-length sequence of digits in the middle, you could do this:

.*SimpleTaskv\d+MoreDetails.*

I want to match only for v9 or v10. Don't want to match with old versions
