The season's first ranking event in Australia sees 48 of the world's top Snooker players battle it out for the $60,000 first prize.

Today's action features current World Champion John Higgins begin his quest for yet another ranking title against newcomer Matthew Selt.

The pick of the ties however is native Australian Neil Robertson against recent Snooker shootout winner Nigel Bond. 2010 World Champion Robertson will be looking to make a good start to the season's first ranking event and impress the home crowd.

The first game sees the experienced Dominic Dale versus another Australian, Steve Mifsud, who also represented his country at the recent World Cup.

Mifsud is playing in place of crowd favourite Ronnie O'Sullivan, who pulled out of the competition due to injury.

Also in action on day two is young gun Mark Allen, who takes on Ryan Day; Allen will be hoping to avoid a shock defeat and go one step further than Judd Trump, who was knocked out yesterday.

Fresh from his World Cup disappointment, England international Ali Carter will play Marcus Campbell and former Premier League champion Shaun Murphy takes on the methodical Rory McLeod.
