'Doggett Is At That Point Now Where He's Ready To Go', Says Harris Ahead Of Ashes Opener
New South Wales: Former Australia fast bowler Ryan Harris has backed pacer Brendan Doggett for selection ahead of the first Ashes Test against England, starting at Perth Stadium on November 21, saying the seamer is at a point right now where he’s ‘ready to go’.
With fast bowler Josh Hazlewood ruled out after sustaining a hamstring injury in New South Wales’ Sheffield Shield clash against Victoria, it has paved the way for Doggett, 31, to potentially earn his maiden Test cap in the high-stakes series opener.
“I've been back in Adelaide three years now, and he's just gotten better and better in that time. He’s been building over a number of years but one thing I've noticed in the last sort of couple of years is he's obviously matured, he knows his game really well.”
