Shamar Joseph Has Bright Future For The West Indies: Kraigg Brathwaite
Though West Indies: Though West Indies lost to Australia by ten wickets in the Test series opener at the Adelaide Oval, captain Kraigg Brathwaite heaped rich praise on fast-bowler Shamar Joseph, who put up a bright all-round performance in his debut match in the format.
Joseph became just the 14th player in the history of Tests, and the first from the West Indies, to take a five-wicket haul on debut, including taking Steve Smith out on his first ball in the format. With the bat, he made 36 and 15 as a number eleven batter in both innings of West Indies’ batting.
"(Joseph's) belief is amazing. If all the guys could have that that'd be great. But he's obviously a special, special guy and he gave a lot of confidence to the team as well when you see him playing his shots and for the batters I just want them to go out there and enjoy themselves."
