Mitchell Swepson also picked up 3 wickets for 26 runs in this innings. Another bowler who did a good job was Mark Steketee with a couple of scalps. These bowlers together with Michael Neser will be expected to perform a good restriction job on the opposition in this game.

The Queensland top-order batting was in good touch in their second innings of the last game despite a loss they had to endure. Joe Burns and the skipper Usman Khawaja made a valiant effort while chasing down the target. Khawaja hit a hundred and while he was at the crease Queensland's hopes of winning the game were alive. But he fell in the form of the last wicket with the team falling short by a wafer-thin margin of 3 runs in the contest.
