Playing Spin In Australia Is Very Different To Playing Spin In Sri Lanka, Says McSweeney
In the recent Border-Gavaskar Trophy, McSweeney struggled against India’s fast-bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah, averaging just 14.4 in three matches, before losing his place to young opener Sam Konstas.
But McSweeney was handed a second chance in Tests via his selection for the Test trip to Sri Lanka, where his skills against spinners will be put through a stern examination by the hosts’ spinners’ led by Prabath Jayasuriya, who took a 12-wicket haul in a win over Australia in 2022.
