Khawaja falls to Boland late as Victoria put clamps on Queensland
Written by I Dig SportsQueensland 106 for 5 (Khawaja 31, Boland 2-25) trail Victoria 300 for 7 dec (Harris 73, Handscomb 66, Wildermuth 3-49) by 194 runs
Victoria declared at 300 for 7 soon after lunch on day two. In reply, Queensland slumped to 42 for 3 before limping to 106 for 6 at stumps, with Jimmy Peirson and Jack Wildermuth both unbeaten.
Victoria resumed play on Friday at 201 for 4, but Sutherland only added two runs to his overnight score before shouldering arms to a Gurinder Sandhu delivery that jagged back and struck the top of off stump. Sam Harper fell for a 17-ball duck to reduce Victoria to 213 for 6.
Queensland's innings started poorly, with Matt Renshaw edging O'Neill to first slip. The Bulls went from 37 for 1 to 42 for 3 when Joe Burns and Bryce Street failed to capitalise on solid foundations.
"It's pretty much what dreams are made of," Warren said about his maiden first-class wicket at the MCG. "It's what everyone wants to do."
Warren was spurred on by a parochial supporter group in the crowd.
"They were carrying on like pork chops today," he said with a smile. "I've got a couple of hooligans from school, a couple of uni mates, and then the old man and a couple of his friends - they've had a couple in the bar.
"They're a bit intoxicated, but having a bit of fun."
