Australia Are Still Little Bit Unsettled In Terms Of Top-order Combinations In Tests, Admits McDonald
Australia head coach Andrew McDonald admitted that their top-order combinations in Tests are still unsettled despite a 3-0 series win over the West Indies, adding that the initial rounds of the Sheffield Shield will help them see who would be in the frame for the all important Ashes, happening later this year.
Despite Australia winning the series in the Caribbean, there’s still a big debate on whether the opening combination of Sam Konstas and Usman Khawaja will be retained for the opening Ashes Test in November. While Khawaja made 117 runs at an average of 19.50, Konstas amassed just 50 runs at an average of 8.33.
