Queensland Bulls 2016/2017

[1910]

He has been in great form though.

I liked how patient he was the other day; nothing big just got through the innings.

Today will be interesting- WA is by far is worst performing state to bat against.

Would Renshaw qualify for Australia or England?

 

[Sproj]

[MENTION=7803]Broncoman[/MENTION], he qualifies for both but has played through our junior systems. So too did Robson though so let's hope England doesn't get wind of his dual eligibility because he has national rep for us written all over him.

On a side note, Swepson is a gun. So much potential and unlike most of the other levies in recent years, seems to be going on with it. Very good signs.

Moved to New Zealand at seven and Brisbane at 11.

He still has an English passport and went back there in 2014 but Queensland offered him a rookie contract in 2014 and he took it. Made his debut the end of that summer in 2015 and then last year had a great year. He's committed to Australia.

Five against India of all people won't go un-noticed.

Queensland have made it three wins from three with an impressive five-wicket win against Western Australia in their rain-affected Matador Cup match at the WACA Ground in Perth.

Chasing 222 to win from 38 overs after rain earlier delayed the start of proceedings, Joe Burns (78no) and Nathan Reardon (61) combined for 116 for the fourth wicket in what proved to be a match-winning stand.

With 82 required from the final 10 overs, Reardon turned aggressor – at one point hitting a six from the bowling of Jason Behrendorff onto the roof of the Lillee-Marsh stand – while Burns continued to anchor the innings expertly.
Reardon and Ben Cutting (3) late in proceedings but by that point the Bulls looked in control, captain Jason Floros not out 12 at the end alongside man of the match Burns.

Earlier, half-centuries to Adam Voges and Cameron Bancroft helped Western Australia to what looked like a strong total of 6-221.
Warriors captain Voges won the toss and elected to bat, with Australia A allrounder Hilton Cartwright opening the batting alongside youngster D’Arcy Short.

Cartwright fell early without scoring, while Short made 17 before his wicket left the Warriors wobbling at 2-35 in the ninth over.
Michael Klinger looked in good touch in making his way to 37 as he and Voges (85 from 80) resurrected the innings before Klinger was bowled by young Bulls leg-spinner Mitch Swepson, who impressed with 1-31 from eight overs.

Voges then teamed up with Bancroft (65no off 60), the pair adding 117 for the fourth wicket to give the hosts a strong target to defend.
Luke Feldman was the pick of the Bulls quicks, taking 2-30 from seven overs.
Poor weather early in the day reduced the contest to 38 overs a side, with Queensland playing their first away match after opening their tournament with two wins at Allan Border Field in Brisbane.

The Warriors, led by Test batsman Adam Voges, had a tie with South Australia in their first encounter of the campaign.

That six that Reardon hit onto the roof of the stands was impressive

 

[1910]

Good period for Bulls.

SA 3/85
21 overs

 

[1910]

Bulls need 200

 

[Mister Wright]

Bulls need 200

We suck at these types of run chases. Hopefully we can get over the line tonight.

 

[Broncoman]

Some great attacking batting from Pierson early

 

[Sproj]

Good team this year, 4 from 4. On a side note, he was in a losing side but goodness me Valente has some talent and class about him.

 

[Broncoman]

He was very good against Victoria as well. Scored a century in a lost cause.
