Today in 1926

[1910]

Today in 1926 Queensland Cricket had win number 1 in the Sheffield Shield against NSW at the SCG. We lost the week before to NSW at the Ekka by 8 runs.

O’Connor became the first man to score 100 in each innings for Qld (Trimble, Chappell, Kerr, Law twice, Hayden twice and Symonds would follow)

Wonder how many guys in 1926 said we should win this Sheffield Shield pretty soon!

While at it, yesterday was the first time since Hayden and Barsby in 93/94 in Adelaide that Queensland has had two 100 opening stands in a game.

Excellent to have Burns back in form and Pommers back in the team. The shield is almost gone for QLD though.

Plenty of points on offer- we will win today and 4 games still after the break. Bulls have had no luck, this will be the first game we've finished with 12 fit players.

McDermott is steaming in here.

Certainly has terrible luck in the first 3 games. I think we finally have our best team on the park now. Lots of outright wind needed to get into the final.
