Western Warriors home to face the Blues

The battle scared Western Warriors return home from their horror road-trip tonight, a day earlier than expected after losing their third Pura Milk Cup match in succession at the Gabba this morning.

The Warriors left Perth a fortnight ago desperate for points, but return after outright Pura Milk Cup losses to Victoria and Queensland, along with a win over the Bushrangers in the Mercantile Mutual Cup.

WA, who now sit fifth on the Pura Milk Cup table with four points from five first-class matches, must re-group to take on New South Wales at the WACA, in the match starting this Friday, 17 December.

WA selectors will meet on Monday, 13 December to select a preliminary squad to play the Blues. They must also wait on an ACB ruling as to the availability of WA Test representatives Justin Langer and Adam Gilchrist.
