RTA SpeedBlitz Blues and Australian wicketkeeper Brad Haddin will take the first steps in his comeback when he captains the NSW 2nd X1 in a four-day fixture against Victoria at Blacktown Olympic Park, starting next Monday October 4.

Apart from the selection of Haddin, the side will contain an abundance of talent with fellow RTA SpeedBlitz Blues regulars Beau Casson, Burt Cockley, Ben Rohrer and Daniel Smith all appearing.
