       Thus concludes a day of shifting tides. WA sent in to bat lost a
        couple early then bounced back.
       Marcus North with his maiden domestic first class century was the
        story of the day.
       Noffke was the pick of the bowling, though we're all keen to see
        what goods the new lad Johnson has in his armoury.
       We'll be back tomorrow at 11:00 WAST (14:00 AEDT or 03:00 GMT) for
        the last throws of the WA tail and the Queensland first innings
       Till then - good evening from the WACA ground Perth ... btw

Match State: Stumps - Day 2


       At this stage the game is poised for a Queensland 1st innings lead
        and ultimately a draw.
       WA coach Mike Veletta and acting captain Simon Katich will be
        imploring their players to renewed efforts in the morning (AFL
        coach screaming bloody murder might be needed)
       but the West Australian fans will not be too despondent and neither
        should the players be likewise - for all it will take is 10 good
        'rocks' to demolish this solid looking Queensland foundation.
       The day belongs to Jo Angel (61) whose mighty effort with the
        willow provided much of the days highlights and which has shored
        up the Western Australian first innings
       Supporting Nicholson with confidence that mocked at the top order
        heroes who have failed to get it started.

       Good Morning from the WACA ground in Perth
       bright clear skies welcome the players and umpires onto the ground
        - there is a easterly breeze with an expected top temperature of
        30 degrees Celsius
       the track is much as it has been over the last couple of days -
        still a little green - latteral cracking and a little bit of
        lifting on the edges
  52.1 Williams to Cassell, no run, leaves one outside off
  52.2 Williams to Cassell, no run, driven softly into the off side
  52.3 Williams to Cassell, no run, rapped on the pad going down the leg
        side - he had no answers to that ball - missed it with the bat -
        came away forward which also helped
  52.4 Williams to Cassell, FOUR, nudged it into the gully beating a man
        there and it goes all the way
  52.5 Williams to Cassell, no run, rapped on the pad again - this one a
        little more straighter and Cassell is rooted to the crease - but
        it is judged down the leg side and thus not out
  52.6 Williams to Cassell, two runs
