'I’d Be Lying If I Said I Wasn't Excited', Says Scott Boland Ahead Of Ashes
New South Wales: Australian pacer Scott Boland has shared his excitement of facing England in the iconic Ashes series at home coming summer. The 36-year-old also stated that he doesn’t mind being the 12th man on the side and making way for someone, who deserves a place in the XI.
Boland expressed confidence in making it to the XI sometime in the series and said that he knows that he’ll be the first to be called up 'if something does happen', or if the team looks for a bowling change in the lineup.
"I'd be lying if I said I wasn’t excited by what’s coming up this summer. Every summer that comes up, I want to be in the team and playing a part. I’m still happy being 12th man if I do miss out, because I know I’m next in line if something does happen, or if they want a change of change of bowler, or if they want to play four quicks, which probably won’t happen in Australia.
