Konica Minolta Queensland Fire defeated South Australia Scorpions by 70 runs to claim a bonus point in this opening WNCL match. These sides meet again tomorrow in a Twenty20 match from 10am local time.
Queensland Fire 229 (47) - Short 39 (46), Mooney 36 (66), Ebsary 2/6 (1), McGrath 2/26 (6) defeated South Australia 159 (46.1) - Peate 41 (39), McGrath 40 (105), Coleman 4/19 (9.1), Jonassen 2/14 (10).
The Scorpions tried hard but leaked a few too many runs in the field and couldn't build any substantial partnerships in the early stages. Tahlia McGrath and Rhianna Peate had strong all-round games.
A comprehensive victory today for the Queensland Fire who batted well before never giving the Scorpions a sniff at running the total down. Jude Coleman at one stage had figures of 3/3 and the spinners kept the pressure on for the entire innings.
