Seam-bowling all-rounder Beau Webster has backed to deliver his best if he’s called upon to be the opener for Australia in the upcoming World Test Championship final against South Africa, starting on June 11 at Lord’s.
Labuschagne has just one Test century to his name since the end of 2022 and in his ongoing stint with county side Glamorgan, has averaged just nine from three innings so far. Australia also have teenaged opener Sam Konstas in their ranks to open the batting alongside Usman Khawaja.
“When he’s [Labuschagne] at his best, he’s unbelievable. His record speaks for itself. He’s a hundred-maker and a game winner. I’m sure going to the top [of the batting] wouldn’t phase him too much. Whoever gets the nod for that final is going to be raring to go,” Webster was quoted as saying by The Sydney Morning Herald.
With coming back to action as a specialist batter, it means Webster is in a shoot-out with him for a spot in Australia’s playing XI in the coveted clash.
“He [Green] is a generational talent and a phenomenal cricketer. He’s only going to get better. He’s only 25, so he’s got a lot of cricket ahead of him,” Webster said.
This recipe looks delicious, I’ll have to try it.
I love the energy of this post.
