After misfiring in his Sheffield Shield return, the Aussie Test opener blasted 116 off 98 deliveries, including 13 fours and three sixes at Allan Border Field.
But Konstas was the only NSW batter to score over 34 in their chase as Queensland ran out 54-run winners, with Lachlan Hearne’s 107 earning him man of the match honours.
Konstas brought up his century with a brave six, needing just 82 deliveries to reach triple figures.
At the WACA, fellow teen sensation Mahli Beardman took 4-46 to help restrict South Australia to 9-208.
However West Australia was 6-129 as of press time, still needing 80 runs from 140 balls to win the match.
Harry Dixon, who starred in the Aussie Under-19 World Cup win last year alongside Beardman and Konstas, opened for Victoria and scored 24 as the visitors finished 9-266 against Tasmania.
