A day after baring his soul to the world, Moises Henriques has posted a ruthless century for NSW in their Sheffield Shield clash with Queensland in Canberra.
The former Test allrounder piled on 152 before the Blues collapsed to be all out for 279 in the final session on day one at Manuka Oval.
Henriques on Thursday detailed his battle with depression and anxiety in an ABC interview and he seemed at ease at the crease as he brought up the eighth ton of his first-clbad career.
Henriques went to the crease with the Blues in trouble at 2-43 on a batting-friendly deck before leading a fightback.
He smashed 20 fours and one maximum in his 178-ball innings but the Blues were ultimately bowled out for what appeared to be a below-par score.
He and young gun Jason Sangha (27) put on 88 for the fourth wicket while Peter Nevill contributed a valuable 29.
However, the Blues fell in a heap in the final session, losing their final five wickets for 16.
Henriques was caught and bowled by Mark Steketee, who was the chief destroyer for the Bulls, taking 4-38.
Steketee also took the valuable wickets of up-and-coming pair Sangha and Jack Edwards (2).
