The Western Australian cricket selectors have expanded a Western Warriors squad for the Pura Cup match against Queensland at the WACA Ground starting on Saturday.
Outstanding young batsman Shaun Marsh was tonight added to the squad.
Marsh, 19, smashed a sparkling 40 from just 30 balls in Thursday's ING Cup limited-overs match against Queensland. The stylish left-hander was not named in the original Warriors squad.
Fast bowler Matthew Nicholson is battling a viral infection. A decision on whether he plays against the Bulls will be made shortly before the match.
Nicholson has been sidelined for the past month as he recovered from a ruptured tendon in his bowling arm.
The Warriors 12th man will also be named just before the match.
The Warriors squad is: Jo Angel (Captain), Murray Goodwin (v-captain), Beau Casson, Michael Clark, Kade Harvey, Shaun Marsh, Scott Meuleman, Matthew Nicholson, Marcus North, Chris Rogers, Luke Ronchi, Callum Thorp, Adam Voges and Paul Wilson.
