By IANS News February 13, 2024 • 14:30 PM View: 1022

Karen Rolton Oval: Australian cricketer Marnus Labuschagne is set to take on the captaincy for Queensland Bulls in their final Marsh Cup fixture against South Australia on Wednesday at Karen Rolton Oval in the absence of regular skipper Usman Khawaja, who is rested ahead of New Zealand tour.

It marks the first time Labuschagne has captained a professional team since the Queensland Under-19 side more than a decade ago.

The 29-year-old, who debuted for Queensland in 2014, will captain the side at Karen Rolton Oval where Dylan McLachlan will make his List A debut, becoming the first indigenous men's cricket player to represent Queensland since spinner Brendan Doggett.
