Australia missed a huge opportunity in Adelaide, according to Ian Chappell. cricket 9WWOS AusvSA
Australia's selectors should have blooded Western Australian speed demon Lance Morris in Adelaide, according to former Test captain Ian Chappell. "Now, you know whoever you pick is probably going to do all right against the West Indies because they're not very good.
The right-armer had New South Wales in ruins during a Sheffield Shield match in October, which saw him capture five wickets in the first innings and four scalps in the third. "If they'd found out that Morris has got a chance at Test level then you might have had him ready for this Brisbane Test," Chappell said.
"And as Andy Roberts said, the great fast bowler from the West Indies, you've got to play blokes while they're still fast. So, if they're fast, play them."So, therefore, I thought that he should have been given an opportunity."
