LEADING THE WAY: Toowoomba talent Jodie Fields bats for Queensland at Heritage Oval. Kevin Farmer TOOWOOMBA Cricket is keen to host other big matches after putting a round of the Women's National Cricket League at Heritage Oval at the weekend.
The Queensland Fire won two of their three games against Western Australia on the weekend, in what was the first time a WNCL round had been taken to regional Queensland and just the second time nationally matches have been played outside capital cities.
Toowoomba Cricket president Angus Rathie was pleased with the way the weekend played out and would be happy to help put on another WNCL round, or a similar event in the future.
"It was good. There was really good cricket played. We've had nearly 900 runs scored over three days of cricket," he said.
"That's been really attractive. The girls play, not so much a power game, but there is plenty of action.
"Overall it's been a good experience. We've learnt a fair bit.
"We've made some good contacts with Queensland Cricket so I think everybody is pretty happy with the way it has gone.
"We've got a chance again to host a similar sort of fixture. I think overall it's rated as a pretty good success.
"We don't expect something every year but it would be nice to get a game like this every couple of years."
