'I've Been Joking With Teammates That They Can't Get Rid Of Me Easily’: Megan Schutt On ODI Comeback
Allan Border Field: Australia’s premier pacer, Megan Schutt, humorously remarked that she keeps telling her teammates they won’t be rid of her easily while also mentioning that she felt good to be back with the team after being named in the playing XI for the recently concluded first ODI against India, following injuries to Ellyse Perry and Kim Garth.
The veteran Australian quick needed just two balls to remind everyone of her value. After spending the entire T20I leg of the multi-format series on the sidelines, Schutt made an emphatic return in the opening ODI against India at Allan Border Field on Tuesday, striking with her second delivery to set the tone for a commanding day from Australia’s bowlers.
The 33-year-old produced a trademark inswinger to trap opener Pratika Rawal lbw, underlining her enduring threat with the new ball. It was an immediate statement from a bowler who had gone from being omitted from the ODI squad to reclaiming her spot following a late injury change.
