Callum Ferguson and Blizzard fire up with hundreds vs Western Australia, Sheffield Shield 2nd day

South Australia 7 for 405 (Ferguson 129, Blizzard 108*, Klinger 86) v Western Australia

Callum Ferguson has been starved of cricket over the past month but he cashed in with a swift century as South Australia finished the second day at 7 for 405 against Western Australia.

Ferguson, who didn't play during Australia's one-day tour of India, breezed to 129 from 143 deliveries to set up South Australia's bid to get some points over the next couple of days.

Aiden Blizzard also played a significant part as he brought up his first hundred in his second Sheffield Shield match for the Redbacks. After making 96 on debut, he backed up with 108 not out, hitting 12 fours and three sixes, including one to the legside which moved him to 95.

Mitchell Johnson has been on Western Australia's books for two years but this is his first match for the Warriors as he prepares for the Sri Lanka ODIs and the Ashes.
