'Easy Option Is To Call For Change': Australia Coach McDonald Against Rushing For Regeneration
New Delhi: Australia coach Andrew McDonald has sounded a note of caution on a demanded shake-up in the Test side following its embarrassing defeat to Bangladesh in the first Test in Darwin. He has emphasised that the players, who have been put under scrutiny for their recent performances, still have a "fair bit of cricket left in them".
Following the Aussies' first-ever defeat to Bangladesh at home on Sunday, voices grew louder over making tweaks to the Test side, starting with changes to one of the opening spots and that of No.3 as Jake Weatherland and Marnus Labuschagne are facing the heat. Former captain Ricky Ponting advocated for the shake-up, stating that the spots needed "regeneration".
However, McDonald has put his weight behind the under-fire batters, stating the guys are "feeling" the painful defeat. "It's always going to be a conversation, the age profile of the team, where we're at, how we're travelling. A loss doesn't help that," McDonald said, as quoted by cricket.com.au. "But these players have got a fair bit of cricket left in them, I believe."
