Cricket: Rising young gun Sam Konstas couldn't make much of an impression against Victoria, after being dismissed for just 2.
Bancroft blows chance with third low score; debutant’s big haul sparks collapse — Sheffield Shield wrapA Queensland bowler is enjoying a dream debut, but Australia ’s top batters and national selectors were left scratching their heads as wickets tumbled freely in the Sheffield Shield.
Nathan McAndrew and Jordan Buckingham vindicated their selections in the Australia A squad with early strikes to remove Matt Renshaw and Usman Khawaja LBW. Whitney’s five-wicket haul came after he spent most of the 2023-24 season on the sidelines with a back injury.“I was sort of cramping towards the end , but it was good to get a wicket at the end.
On a green-tinged deck, Bancroft played at a short delivery well outside the line of off stump to make it scores of 0, 0 and 8 from his first three red-ball innings this summer. Resuming after a rain-interrupted first day, off-spinner Corey Rocchiccioli pouched two more wickets to continue an impressive string of performances at a ground traditionally not conducive to turn.
It took a contentious LBW decision to remove him, but Boland looked a class above the 19-year-old Konstas as he struggled to play nine deliveries from the veteran quick before he was sent on his way for 2.
