NSW cricket prodigy Sam Konstas scored 107 runs in Canberra against an Indian bowling attack, despite weather interruptions. Australian cricket legend Ricky Ponting advised Marnus Labuschagne to be more aggressive in the upcoming second Test match.
NSW prodigy Sam Konstas plundered a near full-strength India n bowling attack in Canberra as Australian great Ricky Ponting called for Marnus Labuschagne to show greater intent in the second Test this week.
Against an impressive attack featuring Test stars Mohammed Siraj , Harhsit Rana , Nitish Kumar Reddy and Washington Sundar , who all played in Perth, Konstas began cautiously before growing in confidence and settling on a fearless approach. Scott Boland, who is likely to replace the injured Josh Hazlewood in the Australian Test side, returned figures of 0-36 from 10 overs with the pink ball under lights.
Before Friday’s second Test in Adelaide, India’s bowlers came to Canberra hoping to build rhythm and bowl at the top of off stump but had to change plans as Konstas put pressure on them.
