Opener nathan mcsweeney

Opener Nathan McSweeney: Opener Nathan McSweeney said his Test debut against India in Perth was unlike anything he had encountered before in his playing career, especially in terms of the quality of the bowling he faced.

On his debut, McSweeney was trapped lbw twice by Jasprit Bumrah for 10 and 0 as Australia lost to India by 295 runs to be 1-0 behind in the five-match Border-Gavaskar Trophy series.

"In Shield cricket, we get to see guys day in, day out, get used to facing them and when you play the international guys, we haven't experienced anything like it. So it's just a little bit different, unique action and it's a little bit tricky to pick up some cues but I'll be better for the run. I'm really looking forward to getting another chance out here in Adelaide," said McSweeney to 9News Adelaide.
