Boom batsman Chris Lynn and cleared quick Cameron Gannon have been injected into Queensland’s Sheffield Shield squad for their clash with Tasmania starting on Wednesday.

The Bulls will be without Usman Khawaja and Ben Cutting after they were called up for this week’s Australia A showdown with England in Hobart.

However, Queensland will still be backing themselves at the batsman friendly Allan Border Field against a Tasmanian outfit captained by Test aspirant George Bailey after snapping up Lynn and Gannon as replacements.

After steering Queensland to victory in their stunning recent one-day final win over NSW, Lynn backed up by thrashing 104 and an unbeaten 61 in the invitational Western Australia XI’s drawn tour match with England in Perth.

And Gannon also has a new lease on life after bouncing back from being reported with a suspect bowling action during the 2012-13 Shield final against overall winners Tasmania in March.

The 24-year-old fast bowler was forced to undergo a lengthy off-season remediation process that eventually resulted in him getting the all-clear.

Gannon made his official return to cricket for the Brisbane Heat in the recent underwhelming Champions League Twenty20 campaign in India.

Lynn and Gannon replacing Khawaja and Cutting are the only changes to the Bulls outfit that grabbed first-innings points in their Shield opener to South Australia in Adelaide.

Queensland have retained Cameron Boyce after his second-innings haul of 7-68 against South Australia – the best by a Bulls leg-spinner since Brian Fynn took 8-148 in 1953-54.

Bulls squad: James Hopes (capt), Cameron Boyce, Joe Burns, Luke Feldman, Peter Forrest, Cameron Gannon, Ryan Harris, Chris Hartley, Nathan Hauritz, Chris Lynn, Greg Moller, Nathan Reardon (12th man to be named).
