Queensland Bulls rout Warriors for 111 in Sheffield Shield clash at Gabba WA captain Adam Voges leaves the field after being dismissed by Queensland's Cameron Gannon. QUEENSLAND'S pace attack routed Western Australia for 111 on the opening day of the Sheffield Shield clash at the Gabba to strengthen their title defence. It took the Bulls just 51.5 overs to dismiss the Warriors in conditions tailor-made for swing and seam bowling, exploited best by beanpole quick Cameron Gannon (4-49). Queensland skipper James Hopes had no hesitation in sending the visitors in on a green-tinged deck and under overcast skies. Only WA skipper Adam Voges, who top-scored with a fighting 38 over 112 minutes, looked in control as nine of the 10 wickets fell to edges into the cordon. Queensland's four pacemen were incredibly disciplined, never conceding a sundry and rarely serving up a loose delivery. Hopes (3-21), Matthew Gale (2-22) and Alister McDermott (1-19) all played their parts in tandem with the lanky Gannon who fired out four of the top six, including Voges thanks to a diving catch by Hopes in the gully. The last six wickets fell for 42. Luke Pomersbach made an immediate impact in his Queensland Shield debut, grabbing two fine diving catches at second slip to dismiss openers Liam Davis (10) and Marcus Harris (5). Mike Hussey then fell to Gannon for five and the in-form Shaun Marsh, batting at No.5, survived for almost an hour before edging Gale to first slip just after lunch. Two first-innings points would put the Bulls back level with Victoria, who have played an extra game, on top of the Shield ladder on 22 points.
