Queenland squad: Marnus Labuschagne (c), Hugo Burdon, Lachlan Hearne, Hayden Kerr, Usman Khawaja, Angus Lovell, Michael Neser, Jimmy Peirson, Jem Ryan, Sam Skelly, Tom Straker, Mitchell Swepson, Hugh Weibgen
Right-arm quick Sam Skelly returns to the squad after taking 13 wickets (6-62 and 7-47) against Tasmania in the second XI during the week. Skelly made his Sheffield Shield debut earlier in the season and comes in for the injured Tom Whitney (foot stress fracture). Top-order batter Jack Clayton sits out with a knee complaint with Angus Lovell coming into the squad.
