XXXX Queensland Bulls squad member Brendan Nash will captain the
Queensland Academy of Sport team that embarks on a mini-tour of New
Zealand next week.
Fellow Bulls squad members Matthew Anderson, Chris Hartley and Scott
O'Leary will join Nash in the QAS team that will spend a week in New
Zealand, playing a four-day match in Christchurch against the NZ
Academy.
Those four players, as well as Souths left-hander Lance Kahler, have all
played first class cricket.
QAS coach Richard Done said the match would continue an excellent
learning curve for many of the players.
"The majority of the team have played in the tour games against New
Zealand in the past fortnight where they have been opposed to some top
class international players," he said.
"Now they have the chance to experience different international
conditions against another quality opponent. It is only a short tour but
it will provide great opportunities for the QAS players who are the
future of Queensland Cricket," Done said.
QAS touring squad to NZ from November 4-9: Brendan Nash (C), Matthew
Anderson, Chris Hartley, Lance Kahler, Damien Mackenzie, Steve Magoffin,
Scott O'Leary, Daniel Payne, Craig Philipson, Allan Rowe, Chris Simpson,
Boyd Williams. Coach: Richard Done.
