Fresh from his second career domestic one day century, Queensland Bulls batter Hugh Weibgen will captain his State in the Toyota Second XI competition next week at Peter Burge Oval.<\/p>\n
Weibgen, who crashed 125 from 89 balls in the Bulls high-scoring loss to NSW last night at Allan Border Field, will lead an experienced Queensland Second XI against Victoria in the four-day game starting on Monday at Wellington Point.<\/p>\n
The former Australian Under-19 captain will be joined by his 2023 World Cup teammate Tom Campbell, as well as recent national U-19 batter Steven Hogan in the squad,<\/p>\n
Also included is former NSW opener Blake Nikitaras who relocated to Brisbane during the off-season, joining KFC Queensland Premier club Toombul.<\/p>\n
Nikitaras, 26, has played 18 first class games for NSW with the left-handed top order bat also playing two One Day Cup and three BBL games.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Pace bowlers Sam Geyer, Sam Skelly and Jem Ryan and allrounder Steve McGiffin all made their first class debuts for Queensland last summer.<\/p>\n
Gold Coast pace bowler Zac McDermott and Norths batter Scott Palombo both return to the Queensland Second XI after playing in the side last season during their unbeaten season.\u00a0<\/p>\n
