K-Pat gets the captaincy, Nevill missing this game as his wife is due to give birth. Surprised they dropped Solway.

With Edwards and Sangha surely that's enough bowling. Batting lineup looks quite raw.


Not even sure who will partner Hughes to open? Hearne?

NSW probably justified in playing 5 bowlers for once given QLDs history of producing roads in Shield finals ;) (and Abbotts form with the bat).

Although now that in the case of draw the team with the most bonus points wins the final there is less incentive to produce a road.
 
2021-22 Blues squad:


NSW Blues men’s contract list, 2021-22

Sean Abbott, Harry Conway, Trent Copeland, Patrick Cummins*, Oliver Davies, Ben Dwarshuis, Jack Edwards, Mickey Edwards, Matthew Gilkes, Ryan Hackney, Josh Hazlewood*, Liam Hatcher, Lachlan Hearne, Moises Henriques, Baxter Holt, Daniel Hughes, Nathan Lyon*, Peter Nevill, Kurtis Patterson, Daniel Sams, Jason Sangha, Tanveer Sangha, Steve Smith*, Mitchell Starc*, Chris Tremain, David Warner*, Adam Zampa* (* indicates CA contract)

Rookies: Josh Baraba, Ryan Hadley, Jack Nisbett, Hunar Verma

Nick Larkin, Daniel Solway, Arjun Nair and SA-bound Nathan McAndrew drop off the list.

All four rookies are fast bowlers I gather.
 
Who'd have thought Larkin would end up with a better T20 record than FC......

Would think Larkin and Solway would both be better options than Wakim and Ward so interesting to see if any interest from TAS for those players, I don't think Tasmania have released a contract list yet.
 
Tremain finally selected, Moises back, and Nair and Kerr in the squad.


  • Kurtis PATTERSON (Captain)
  • Harry CONWAY
  • Jack EDWARDS
  • Matthew GILKES
  • Moises HENRIQUES
  • Daniel HUGHES
  • Hayden KERR
  • Arjun NAIR
  • Peter NEVILL (+)
  • Jason SANGHA
  • Tanveer SANGHA
  • Chris TREMAIN

In: Conway, Henriques, Kerr, Nair, T.Sangha, Tremain
Out: Sean ABBOTT (rested), Trent COPELAND (injured), Liam HATCHER (injured), Lachlan HEARNE (dropped), Nathan LYON (rested)

 
There are 3 new south welshman in the tassie team.

Ward, Doran and Bird.

While the blues look like they are struggling to field a team.
 

Where is Daniel Hughes.If we are looking for new test openers a few names thrown up on BF are not helping their chances over the last 2 weeks.
