BGT 2024-25: McSweeney Is Well Equipped To Come Good, Says Ryan Harris
Nathan McSweeney: Former Australia fast-bowler Ryan Harris has backed ‘well-equipped’ Nathan McSweeney to come good in the second Test against India at the Adelaide Oval, starting on December 6, after struggling to get going on debut at Perth. On his Test debut, McSweeney was trapped lbw twice by Jasprit Bumrah for 10 and zero as Australia lost to India by 295 runs at Perth Stadium and are now 1-0 behind in the five-match Border-Gavaskar Trophy series.
“For now, I think he’s the best person for it but like everyone he needs to score runs. Batting at No.3 and opening is slightly different but it’s not…Nathan is well-equipped to do that. Obviously, he didn’t have a great start but he copped two pretty good balls in Perth,” said Harris to SEN Radio.
Harris, who coaches McSweeney in the South Australia domestic side, feels the batter’s best position at Test cricket in the future is number three. “Ultimately, he probably slots back into three at some stage depending on what happens over the next couple of years with ‘Uzzie’ (Usman Khawaja).”
