Young Australia all-rounder Cameron Green isn’t in the preliminary checklist of 23 gamers chosen to tour West Indies for 5 T20Is and three ODIs. The 21-12 months-previous, who made his debut in opposition to India final December, was touted as an all-spherical choice however the choice snub makes it unlikely that he can be part of Australia’s T20 World Cup plans.
“I got told I was in the original expanded squad and then got told I just missed out,” he stated. “But looking at all the names on that list, you can see why. They’ve picked a really strong squad that has performed well over the past year. Unfortunately I didn’t make it, but it’s an awesome squad and I’m sure they’ll do really well over there.”
Green is trying ahead to enjoying the Ashes later this 12 months, having remained match via the season. Green has had his share of accidents in the previous.
“This might be my first year as a professional cricketer, I’ve gotten to this part of the year uninjured,” he stated.
“It’s a nice little stepping stone going into the year to be fully fit and hit the ground running from day one. I’m looking forward to a good pre-season over here.
“For all kids growing up watching cricket this (Ashes) is the pinnacle. I’ve got a lot of fond memories growing up watching it. Going back to Ashton Agar scoring 98 (in the 2013 series), I remember everyone was talking about it for months after.”
Australia’s preliminary squad for West Indies tour: Aaron Finch (c), Ashton Agar, Jason Behrendorff, Alex Carey, Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood, Moises Henriques, Mitchell Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Riley Meredith, Josh Philippe, Jhye Richardson, Kane Richardson, Tanveer Sangha, D’Arcy Short, Steven Smith, Mitchell Starc, Marcus Stoinis, Mitchell Swepson, Andrew Tye, Matthew Wade, David Warner, Adam Zampa
