Test quick Ryan Harris guides Queensland to big win over South Australia in Ryobi Cup Ryan Harris is in strong form in the Ryobi Cup. AUSTRALIAN Test fast bowling spearhead Ryan Harris turned in a strong performance as Queensland moved to the top of the one-day cup ladder with a dominant 90-run win over South Australia at North Sydney Oval. Queensland scored 8-273 before a confident all-round bowling effort saw South Australia routed for just 183, with the Bulls also picking up a bonus point. Only an unlikely half-century from No.10 batsman Adam Zampa (66) saved the Redbacks from complete embarrassment as he and Peter George put on a tenth-wicket stand of 57. The Queenslanders shared the spoils among five wicket-takers with off-spinner Nathan Hauritz claiming the best figures (3-31). However, it was Harris, featuring in just his second match since a two-month break, whose performance was under the most scrutiny ahead of next month's first Ashes Test against England in Brisbane. Despite a modest return of 1-36 off eight overs, Harris bowled with good speed and bounce under the watchful eye of Australia coach Darren Lehmann. Harris picked up the early wicket of Michael Klinger, the competition's highest run-scorer helping to kick-start a steady flow of wickets. Earlier, some late-innings big-hitting from Queensland captain James Hopes (49no) and Ben Cutting (39) helped the Bulls set a target of 274, with 65 runs peeled off during the final five overs. Cutting, having played a stunning knock of 98 not out off 48 balls at the same venue last weekend, seemed set to repeat the dose before skying into the deep after striking four sixes and facing just 30 balls. Hopes also batted intelligently, scoring at nearly a run-a-ball while opener James Peirson top-scored with 85 off 102 deliveries. Despite the small ground it was spin that made the difference for South Australia in the middle part of the Queensland innings. Redbacks skipper Johan Botha claimed three quick top-order wickets with his off-spin before finishing with 3-42 off ten overs. The immediate playing future of the South African all-rounder is set to be determined this week after he was recently reported for a suspect bowling action. Former NSW leg-spinner Zampa took 2 for 28 off eight overs.
