Queensland has two wins in three games and play two more games today in the T20 format.

In round 1, Queensland scored 1-133 but were overtaken by a New South Wales team which scored 6-134.

Flynn took 2-23 and Cooper 1-29. Neither got a bat.

Queensland had a bye in round 2 and beat Northern Territory in round 3.
