I Think We'll Be Really, Really, Really Well-Prepared For Ashes: Australia Bowling Coach

By IANS News November 28, 2021 • 13:40 PM View: 1614

Australian bowling coach Andrew McDonald expects his pace bowling battery comprising Josh Hazlewood, Mitchell Starc and new captain Pat Cummins to fire on all cylinders in the Ashes beginning on December 8, saying he would entertain no excuses if the hosts have a slow start to the series against Joe Root's England.

The pace bowling trio has not played red-ball cricket either internationally or in domestic Sheffield Shield owing to their involvement in the ICC T20 World Cup in the UAE, but the Australian coaching staff has made it clear that lack of game time should not be cited as an excuse for underperformance.
