Summarised from 2 outlets · 4 reports · Updated 13 Oct, 15:02 · Archive

Queensland defeated Western Australia by 15 runs in the One-Day Cup at the WACA Ground, with 21-year-old opener Hugh Weibgen scoring 103. After Turner put the visitors in, Queensland stumbled to 2-37 early on, but Weibgen and Hugo Burdon steadied with a 112-run partnership for the third wicket. Burdon made 67 off 49 balls before being caught off Albert Esterhuysen, who finished with 2-30. Weibgen's 89-ball knock featured 12 fours and two sixes as he backed up his previous century of 125 against New South Wales.

Western Australia's chase got off to a strong start. Openers Mitch Marsh and Joel Curtis put on 58 runs before Marsh fell for 36. By the halfway point, WA were 1-147 and closing in on victory, but they collapsed dramatically, losing 5 wickets for 32 runs. Brody Couch was WA's best bowler with 3-48, and Kieran Elliott took 3-57. Captain Ashton Turner, batting at number nine, almost fashioned a rescue with 58 before becoming the last man out, caught off Mitch Swepson.

WA remain pointless at the bottom of the ladder with three losses in three. Queensland recorded their first win of the competition.
