Taylor Urges Australian Selectors To Recall Konstas For West Indies Tour
World Test Championship Final: Former Australia Test captain Mark Taylor has urged selectors to recall teenaged opener Sam Konstas for the upcoming series against the West Indies, starting on June 26. The development comes after Australia’s new top order failed to fire in the World Test Championship Final against South Africa and lost by five wickets at Lord’s.
Usman Khawaja, Marnus Labuschagne and Cameron Green couldn’t make substantial contributions, and with head coach Andrew McDonald hinting that a top-order reshuffle is on cards, especially with Steve Smith suffering a dislocated little finger, a return for Konstas is imminent.
"David Warner retired nearly two years ago now and we haven't really found a replacement for him. Although, they really haven't tried that hard either, to be totally honest with you. Travis Head moved up the order (in Sri Lanka), Konstas was left out having debuted at Melbourne with that swashbuckling 60 that he made.
