Ben Van Bael set the Central Queensland Intercity T20 Junior Carnival alight with an inspired spell in the opening game on Thursday night.
The young paceman finished with 5-4 off three overs to lead Rockhampton Blue to a comprehensive win over Rockhampton White in the under-14 division.
Rockhampton Blue also prevailed in the under-16 showdown against Rockhampton White, winning by 27 runs after posting a total of 8-96.
Rockhampton Cricket president Tony Newman said the carnival was being played in three CQ centres, with Rockhampton fielding two teams in each of the four divisions.
The under-11s are being held in Biloela and the under-12s in Emerald.
