Nick Bertus, Matthew Gilkes, Liam Hatcher and Nathan McAndrew could play their first one-day games for the Blues, while experienced players like Kurtis Patterson, Moises Henriques and Sean Abbott will be charged with leading the way for the young squad.

Western Australia

The back niggle Jason Behrendorff picked up in his short T20 stint with Sussex in the UK has seen WA take a cautious approach and rest him from the opening two matches of their campaign against the Vics and Tasmania at home.

However they still boast a formidable bowling line-up with World Cup stars Nathan Coulter-Nile and Marcus Stoinis back in the mix, as well as a long-awaited return from a shoulder injury for Jhye Richardson.

They also welcome the return of Test batsman Cameron Bancroft, who played the first two matches of the Ashes, while allrounder Mitchell Marsh will miss this weekend after his efforts at The Oval in the fifth Test.
