World test championship final

World Test Championship Final: Former Australian wicketkeeper Ian Healy has expressed his displeasure over making Cameron Green bat at number three in the Test team line-up, adding that someone like Nathan McSweeney should be there while the all-rounder can be accommodated elsewhere.

In the first innings of the first Test against the West Indies in Bridgetown, Barbados, Australia were bowled out for 180, with Green making just three runs. Green had previously made just seven runs at an average of 2.33 at number three during Australia’s defeat to South Africa in the World Test Championship Final held earlier this month at Lord’s.

“I do find it a little bemusing that Pat Cummins is saying that Cameron Green is a long-term No. 3. Previously about four months ago, they said Nathan McSweeney is a No. 3 moving forward for as long as you like and possible captain.
