Needing death hitting options heading into the 2027 World Cup after the retirements of Marcus Stoinis and Glenn Maxwell, the young Victorian’s onslaught has firmed up his spot in the middle order.
“(He’s a) serious talent,” Head said after the second ODI.
“I thought he played really well the other day. They’re always hard times to come in. The ball was soft.”
