Led by Sam Whiteman, Western Australia opted to bowl first after winning the toss against Usman Khawaja‘s Queensland. Despite Western Australia’s solid bowling performance, Khawaja’s fight century propelled Queensland to a total exceeding 250.
Cameron Green’s spectacular one-handed catch steals spotlight
The spotlight, however, belonged to Green, who stole the show with a remarkable catch in the slips. Positioned at first slip during the 106th over bowled by Charles Stobo, Green displayed exceptional agility, diving to his left to dismiss Gurinder Sandhu. Sandhu contributed 11 runs off 32 deliveries before falling victim to Green’s outstanding catch. Queensland eventually declared their first innings at 274/8.
