The five-match Test series between India and Australia will start from November 22. Shane Watson & Sam Konstas. (Source: X/Twitter) The Australian team has to play a five-match Test series against India later this year (November-December). Before this series, the biggest question for the Australian team is, who will be their opener in these five test matches. After the retirement of David Warner, in Test cricket, Australia decided to get Steve Smith to open in some matches, which did not prove to be that effective. Before the start of BGT, Australia has made it clear that Steve Smith will play at number four in this series. After this, who will open for him again is a big issue. Meanwhile, former Australian all-rounder Shane Watson has given a big statement. He has described a 19 year old boy as the opening partner of Usman Khawaja. Shane Watson has named young Sam Konstas (Sam Konstas) Supported. Representing New South Wales, the 19-year-old recently scored a double century against South Australia in Sydney and with that in mind, Watson believes Konstas could be the perfect fit to open . Shane Watson made a big statement about young Sam Konstas Watson believes that young players can bring a different aspect to the team and said that with all the veteran players ageing, Cricket Australia should also focus on bringing in new talent. Shane Watson was quoted by AAP as saying, “In my mind, this is the right time to give him a chance in Test cricket. You know bowlers are getting old, Steve Smith and Usman Khawaja are also slowly getting old, so this young player should be given a chance.” He further said, “Obviously he still has a lot of cricket in front of him. But one thing Australian cricket has always done incredibly well was to look at someone who was different from all the young stars coming through and integrate them into the Australian set-up as quickly as possible with reasonable understanding. Also, being able to help them learn.”
