Nic Maddinson missed out on the chance to guide New South Wales to victory, but the Blues still wrapped up a comfortable seven-wicket win over Queensland at the SCG. Chasing 102, New South Wales had started the day at 2 for 42 with Maddinson and Kurtis Patterson at the crease, but Maddinson fell in the first over of the day.Maddinson tried to clear the infield off the spin of Jason Floros and was caught at mid-on, hardly the kind of shot that would have impressed the Test selectors after his first-innings century. He was out for 15 but Patterson (31 not out) and Ben Rohrer (29 not out) steered the Blues home without any further loss of wickets.
