Lindisfarne? Wow that's tiny, like a country oval. Is this because of the light tower constructions at Bellerive?

 

[anti dukes]

It isn't small at all. It has the second best wicket in Tassie behind Bellerive.

Here's some stuff from bulls.com.au that might be of interest:


"Sandgate-Redcliffe bolter Steve Exelby will take another giant stride in his short but impressive cricket career so far with selection today in the Queensland Academy of Sport team for this week’s Futures League match against Tasmania.
Exelby, 21, has played just four first grade games for the Gators, taking his inaugural five wicket haul of 5-62 in the round 7 clash against University of Queensland.
The towering right-arm quick will make his Futures League debut in the match starting tomorrow, joining fellow “tall timber” Cameron Gannon in a rookie pace attack that will be buttressed by second gamer Matthew Jensen from Norths.
XXXX GOLD Queensland Bulls batsmen Greg Moller and Craig Philipson will have a hit-out in the three-day match in Hobart as two of three players aged over 23 that are allowed in the team.
Moller is building a case for selection following an impressive effort as captain of the Australian team in the Hong Kong Sixes recently while Philipson’s knock of 50 not out from 35 balls was instrumental in the Bulls producing a winning total in their Ford Ranger Cup victory over South Australia in Alice Springs on Saturday.
Promising Toombul batsman Chris Lynn goes into the match in rare form, leading the XXXX GOLD First Grade run-scoring list with 503 runs at 71.86."

Play has been delayed due to heavy overnight rain. Looking for a 11:30am start.

Anyone know how Triffit got a stumping off Owen? Owen is a fast bowler, so thats a top effort standing up to the stumps...

Here you go

Over 22.6: Owen to Kemp, no run, OUT, pushed down the legside, Triffitt who has moved up to the stumps for the medium pacer, whips the bails off with Kemp out of his ground. Excellent work from the young keeper

Nice win by the Queensland kids - Ben Dunk the wicket-keeper & captain had a storming game.

Good to see the leggie Cam Boyce getting some wickets and also holding his nerve when Tassie were getting some momentum in the run chase.

They'll be disappointed that they were dismissed with 13 overs still left to bat as they were on track for a good win.

The investment in youth is certainly paying off for Queensland Cricket. The Bulls are going along nicely and the kids at this level are also doing pretty well.

The T20 series next month should be a beauty too. Anyone know when teams will be announced?
