The 28-year-old's form shadowed that of his side, with a golden duck in the first game - a 73-run loss to Queensland - followed by 87 off 63 balls in their dominant win over Western Australia.

Sheffield bowler Brodie Deverell took 2-27 as Mowbray and Greater Northern Raiders representative Ben Spinks claimed 1-22.
Westbury's Corey Briggs continued his solid form with the willow, smacking 26 off 14 with Brodie Hayes working his way to a patient 24 off 43 in the side's 7-100.
Hayes would then partner Morse to a mammoth 167-run partnership for the opening wicket in Tasmania's Western Australia contest, making an unbeaten 63 off 60 as his partner fell short of 100 - dismissed on the first ball of the final over.
Defending 169, Burnie's Josh Barry would claim an early wicket to set the side up before later dismissing Tom Regan for 32.
His score would only be bettered by Nick Taylor's 34 as the Tasmanians shared the wickets through Spinks, Briggs, Deverell, Julius Kerwin and Jack Callinan, restricting the side to 7-114.
The side will now face Victoria, who also sit at one win and loss, on Tuesday afternoon.
