‘Watched Jasprit Bumrah, spoke to KL Rahul’

Nineteen-year-old Australian cricketer Sam Konstas is poised for a potential Test debut against India on Boxing Day. He’s been studying Jasprit Bumrah’s bowling and even gleaned insights from KL Rahul. Konstas’s impressive recent form, including a century against India in a warm-up match, has earned him praise. Konstas, who smashed 14 fours and a six in his brilliant knock against India in the warm-up match, where he was named Man of the Match, draws inspiration from former Australia allrounder Shane Watson.
