Bartlett also pulled off a smart catch as the hosts fell to 22 for 4 before falling to 104 for 7 at stumps, a lead of just 69 runs. The Queensland pacer started Henry Hunt with a great throw and dismissed Jake Weatherald two balls later when the Test delivery bounced outside off stump and was caught in the gully. On Cameron Gannon’s next pass, Bartlett took a smooth, low catch at first slip as Nathan McSweeney fell to make it 1-0.
The South African ctain was clearly unhpy with the decision as replays suggested the ball had hit his right leg. Three overs later, Bartlett struck again when Jake Lehmann was bowled. The reigning Shield champions’ plight worsened six overs later when Jem Ryan took two wickets in two overs.
Ryan bowled Jason Sangha with an off-cutter and bowled Harry Neilsen for a duck when the lefthander attempted a leave but edged onto his stumps. Liam Scott and Ben Manenti added 47 runs for the seventh wicket, with Bartlett finishing the day with 3 for 33 from 10 overs and Gannon finishing with 2 for 29 after his five-wicket haul in the first innings. Earlier, Queensland had taken the lead in the first innings with Jack Clayton leading the way with 66.
Clayton hit nine fours in his 129-ball knock before the left-hander was beaten by Brendan Doggett. Many of Clayton’s teammates failed to citalize on their promising starts. Hugo Burdon, Jimmy Peirson and Hayden Kerr were well prepared before being dismissed. Stragglers Mitch Swepson and Cameron Gannon added some handy late runs against an SA attack led by Doggett, the two-Test pacer.
