Australia Coach McDonald Backs Green For WTC Final, Says 'He's Got All Bases Covered'
World Test Championship: Australia head coach Andrew McDonald has backed in-form Cameron Green for the World Test Championship (WTC) final against South Africa at Lord's.
The 25-year-old will not be available to bowl in the WTC final but is almost certain to return to the Australian XI as a specialist batter. His inclusion is expected to shake up the batting order, with the selectors considering multiple options. Marnus Labuschagne, Sam Konstas, Beau Webster and Josh Inglis all remain in contention, depending on how the final XI is structured.
Green last played Test cricket in March 2024, batting at No. 4 during Australia’s two-match series against New Zealand, where he scored a career-best 174 not out in Wellington. Recently, he has been in excellent form at No. 5 for Gloucestershire, notching up three centuries and an unbeaten 67 in eight innings — his first games after undergoing back surgery in October.
