Green Shouldn't Be In Test Team If He's Not Bowling: Ian Healy

By IANS News November 07, 2025 • 13:16 PM View: 536

Ian Healy: Australian cricket legend Ian Healy gave his blunt take on Cameron Green's selection for the first Ashes Test squad, saying that he should not have been selected for the series opener if he can’t bowl.

Green, the incumbent No. 3, has sent down just four overs in competitive cricket so far this summer after back surgery. A return to bowling in international cricket in the ODI series against India was nixed by a side complaint.
