Carseldine leads Bulls towards 500 AAP - 17 October 2002
BRISBANE, Oct 17 AAP - Left-hander Lee Carseldine posted his maiden first-class century as Queensland piled on the runs against NSW on the second day of the Pura Cup cricket match at the Gabba. At tea, the Bulls were 5-480 with Carseldine (110 not out) taking over from Brendan Nash (176) to make the Blues sweat through a Brisbane day reaching temperatures of 33 degrees. Wicketkeeper Wade Seccombe joined in the runs with 43 not out as Queensland batted itself towards an unbeatable position against a NSW team which improved its bowling today without achieving results. But the Blues needed more luck, watching Carseldine reach his century with an edge between wicketkeeper Brad Haddin and floating slip Michael Clarke. Carseldine had survived 240 balls, batting for almost five hours to give Queensland an imposing total. Stuart MacGill (2-143) extended his workload to 46 overs, taking the only wicket today when he had Nash caught behind by Brad Haddin. © 2002 AAP
