Clayton`s Century Sparks Queensland Recovery at Gabba

Jack Clayton`s century and Alex Carey`s performance highlight Queensland`s recovery and Australia`s strong Test showing against Sri Lanka.

Jack Clayton`s unbeaten century was pivotal for Queensland in their Sheffield Shield clash against New South Wales at the Gabba. After a dismal start, with Queensland at 3-45, Clayton`s 133 not out helped the team recover to finish day one at 5-307. His innings marked his fourth first-class century and showcased resilience, especially after he was dropped at first slip on 98. Lachlan Hearne contributed a solid 63 runs, while Jimmy Peirson added 36, helping to stabilize the innings alongside Clayton.

On the bowling front, debutants Hanno Jacobs and Ross Pawson from NSW made early impacts, with Jacobs taking three crucial wickets, including that of Matt Renshaw. Queensland currently sits fourth on the Sheffield Shield ladder with 19.31 points, trailing behind South Australia, Victoria, and NSW.

In another highlight, Alex Carey shone in the second Test against Sri Lanka at Galle International Cricket Stadium, scoring an impressive 139 runs. Promoted to bat at number five, Carey partnered with Steve Smith, who remained unbeaten on 120, leading Australia to 3-330 in response to Sri Lanka`s first innings total of 257. Carey`s performance was particularly notable for his improved sweep shots, a skill he has honed during previous tours. His Test batting average has risen to 43.35, and he has been included in Australia`s preliminary squad for the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy.
