Cricket: Beau Webster has been tipped to join the Australian squad ahead of the second India test.
Beau Webster tipped to join Aus squad | 00:25Australian white-ball superstar Adam Zampa has put his hand up for the nation’s upcoming tour of Sri Lanka early next year, after making a first-class return for New South Wales this week.And elsewhere, wicketkeeping legend Ian Healy has pleaded for the return of an axed playing academy as part of the country’s ambition to accelerate the next generation of gun cricketers .
But there is an opportunity for him to finally get a crack in Sri Lanka next January, with spin likely to dominate the overseas tour given the friendly nature of conditions. Western Australia’s Corey Rocchiccioli has also been in-form at domestic level for a couple seasons now, while Tasmanian left-arm orthodox recruit Matt Kuhnemann also has Test experience on the sub-continent, and will be up for consideration.
“We’ve got ‘Gaz’ and ‘Heady’ who bowl really well over there, and left-arm spin typically does well over there. “I wouldn’t say it’s a total burning desire; it’s something I’d like to do and challenge myself at,” Zampa added when asked about the five-day format.“I might look back one day and feel like maybe I didn’t give it a 100 per cent crack, and I feel like playing these games and putting my hand up for the Sri Lanka tour and being keen for that is fine.
