A shocking caught-and-bowled effort from WA fast Charlie Stobo has turned Tasmania’s innings on its head on day one of many Sheffield Shield conflict on the WACA Ground.
The former NSW participant managed to stay one in his proper hand diving ahead after a full-blooded drive from opener Tim Ward, who’s to this point the Tigers’ top-scorer with 44.
The wicket sparked a mini-collapse early within the second session the Tasmania shedding 3-11 to droop from 1-103 to 4-114.
Stobo was the choose of WA’s bowlers throughout the primary two classes, taking 2-20 from 13 overs with No.3 Jake Doran (18) his over sufferer, after getting the nod forward of Cameron Gannon.
Tasmania have been 5-149 at tea with captain Jordan Silk, who received the toss and elected to bat first, falling final ball of the session to off-spinner Corey Rocchiccioli and ex-Australian Test skipper Tim Paine unbeaten on the different finish on 15.
Rocchiccioli has two wickets to his title, ending a irritating 72-run opening stand between Ward and Caleb Jewell (40) due to a shocking catch at first slip from returning captain Mitch Marsh.
