Khawaja Believes Konstas Should Continue As His Opening Partner For Tests In Sri Lanka
Konstas made 113 in his first two Tests against India, averaging 28.25 and enthralling everyone with a rollicking 60 off 65 balls on debut in the Boxing Day match at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. But with word going around Australia considering to open with Travis Head, Khawaja has backed Konstas to continue opening the batting when the first Test begins in Galle on January 29.
“I’m very conservative in that nature – I’m a bit the same (as Ponting), you’ve got two openers so open with them. I’ve always been that nature because I’ve been on so many subcontinent tours and been shuffled or dropped, and I don’t necessarily agree with that. You’ve got your best team, so stick with it. Let them learn in all different conditions and then whatever happens from there, is there,” said Khawaja to reporters in Colombo on Sunday.
