BGT: Konstas’ Innings Against Western Australia Convinced Me He’s Ready For Tests, Says Lawson
On Friday, Konstas’ was given a call-up to Australia Test team for the fourth and fifth Tests against India at the expense of Nathan McSweeney. Konstas shot into limelight by scoring twin centuries against South Australia in the opening round of Sheffield Shield.
Those twin centuries also earned him the distinction of being the first teenager to achieve this feat in the Sheffield Shield since the legendary Ricky Ponting did so in 1993. Before the knock of 88, Konstas also hit a century against India in the pink-ball practice game at Canberra, apart from making 73 not out against India A at Melbourne.
