Queensland 1 for 39 trail New South Wales 7 for 327 dec (Smith 117, Patterson 111, Feldman 5-68) by 288 runsScorecard Usman Khawaja and Joe Burns survived a tense period late in the evening after Steven Smith earlier struck a century in the Sheffield Shield clash between Queensland and New South Wales at the Gabba. Mitchell Starc was also able to deliver six challenging overs before stumps in the day-night match, as he aims to prove his fitness to selectors ahead of the first Test against South Africa.The squad for the Perth Test is due to be named on Friday and there were a number of fascinating sub-plots on offer at the Gabba. One of the most notable was the desire for runs from Burns and Khawaja, both of whom were dropped after two Tests on Australias recent tour of Sri Lanka, and both of whom are hoping for reinstatement for the home summer.However, they had to wait until late in the day for their chance after Khawaja won the toss and sent New South Wales in to bat. David Warner missed out on the opportunity for a big innings against the pink ball, caught behind off the bowling of former Test fast man Peter George for 12, and his opening partner Ed Cowan also departed cheaply for 10.But Smith and Kurtis Patterson were then able to compile a hefty 228-run third-wicket stand, which ended when Smith was bowled by Luke Feldman for 117. Patterson brought up his fifth first-class hundred before falling for 111, also to Feldman, who troubled several batsmen with the pink ball as the Gabba lights came on in the evening and finished with 5 for 68.Smith declared at 7 for 327, which meant Queenslands top order would face a difficult 13-over period before stumps against the Test teams new-ball combination of Starc and Josh Hazlewood. Opener Charlie Hemphrey was bowled by Hazlewood for a duck in the second over of the innings, which brought Khawaja to the crease to join Burns.The moving ball under lights proved a challenge for Burns and Khawaja, but both men made it safely to stumps, giving themselves a chance of a big innings on day two to impress the selectors. At the WACA Shaun Marsh, who had come in for the third Test in Colombo and scored a century, made 73 for Western Australia in his return from a hamstring injury; at the Gabba Burns finished on 21 not out and Khawaja on 18.It was not only the Queensland batsmen who wanted a strong performance ahead of the Test squad selection: Starc needed to convince the selectors of his fitness in his first match back having last month had 30 stitches in his left shin following a horror training mishap. Starc bowled six of the 13 overs Queensland faced late on day one, and took 0 for 26.

The Jets are now 0-5-1 in the second game of back-to-backs. The game started the same way the Vancouver game started the night before, with the Jets taking the first two penalties of the game and killing off the first, but the Oilers getting on the board first, scoring on the second man-advantage.

SAINT-LO, France -- Tour de France cyclists suspected of using hidden motors will be stopped even in the middle of a stage, UCI president Brian Cookson said on Friday.The International Cycling Union is deploying a magnetic resonance test and thermal cameras to catch any cheats.We can do the tests at the start, at the finish, we can take bikes during the race if there are any changes or so, Cookson said. Its not just the bikes that the riders start off the race, we test the bikes on the cars, we test the bikes on the teams trucks as well.The race starts on Saturday at Mont-Saint-Michel.The first suspicion of mechanical doping emerged in 2010 when Swiss rider Fabian Cancellara was forced to deny he won Paris-Roubaix and the Tour of Flanders with the help of an electric bike after a video appeared to show him pushing a button on the handlebars during both races. Bike checks were introduced, and have been carried out by the UCI at its events.This year, a Belgian cyclist was caught using a motor on her bike at the cyclo-cross world championships.We will both target and be unpredictable, Cookson said. We are not going to test every bike and every team every day. We are going to test a large number, probably do over 3,000 tests during the Tour de France, compared to 20 or 30 last year.Cookson would not speculate on how widespread was mechanical doping.Clearly the technology exists, clearly it is a threat that we have to deal with, and absolutely we will do what we can to make sure we combat it effectively, he said.Femke Van den Driessche, the Belgian ccaught at the cyclo-cross worlds, was the first cyclist caught for mechanical doping in a major competition, and banned for six years.ddddddddddddAfter that control in January it was obvious that it was not just a rumor and we needed to do something, Tour director Christian Prudhomme said. It was perhaps a bit slow, but now we have a true arsenal of deterrent weapons.In April, French television program Stade 2 claimed to have detected motors at two Italian races by using roadside thermal cameras. The UCI previously said its magnetic resistance test was more effective than flawed heat-seeking tests, which it said were only effective if bikes are filmed close up from motorcycles.To reassure authorities in France, the police and (Tour organizers) ASO, if we have to adopt a supplemental method then we will do that, Cookson said. We have a good system, we are happy to use an additional system from time to time as we will be using during the Tour.In terms of traditional doping controls, Cookson said it will be a normal regime, with the possibility of tests at night, as allowed by French law.The French Anti-Doping Agency and the Cycling Anti-Doping Foundation -- an independent organization mandated by the UCI -- renewed their partnership for the Tour, with targeted tests being carried out throughout the three-week race.A total of 656 controls were performed during the 2015 Tour, including 482 blood tests and 174 urine tests.
