Haddin Urges Australia To Send Konstas Home If He Is Not In Plan For Second Test Vs SL
New South Wales: Former Australian wicketkeeper Brad Haddin has advised selectors to send 19-year-old Sam Konstas back home to play state cricket if he is not in contention for the second Test against Sri Lanka in Galle. Despite making an impressive debut against India, Konstas was left out of the playing XI for the first Test in Galle, with the side opting for the experience of Travis Head at the top of the order.
Haddin, a strong advocate for young players gaining match experience, believes Konstas should return to New South Wales to play in their upcoming Sheffield Shield clash against Queensland at the Gabba rather than carrying drinks in Sri Lanka.
Speaking on the matter, Haddin emphasised that Konstas’ development will benefit more from time in the middle than merely being part of the squad without getting game time.
