(Photo by Matthew Lewis-ICC/ICC via Getty Images) Australia’s performance in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 was very poor and the team could not make it to the semi-finals. Australia had to face defeat against Afghanistan and India in the Super 8. Now Australia has to play T20 series against England and Scotland.

Let us tell you, in the Big Bash League 2023, this young player played an aggressive innings of 25 runs in 11 balls for the Perth Scorchers and won the hearts of all the fans. Cooper Connolly has 15 T20 experiences in domestic cricket. Recently this young player made a big revelation about his selection in the international team. According to Cooper Connolly, he himself was quite surprised when his name was taken. However, if the young player gets a chance, he would definitely want to leave his mark in it. According to cricket.com.au, Cooper Connolly said, “I was not able to sit in one place at all. I was only able to walk for 10 to 15 minutes and it was a shocking time for me. It feels very good that I performed well for Perth Scorchers and Western Australia. Because of this, my confidence also increased a lot overnight but I had never experienced such a thing in international cricket. There are some quality players like Travis Head in the team and I would like to learn a lot from them. If I get a chance, I would like to use it as much as possible.” George Bailey gives his take on Cooper Connolly George Bailey said about this young player, ‘Cooper Connolly has performed very well in the middle order for Perth. Not only this, he can also bowl spin and can bat anywhere between number four to number 7. If you look at our T20 team, Matthew Wade and Marcus Stoinis have performed very well at the top. Not only this, both these players have also played the role of finisher very well. I think Copper also has the same ability and the young players can perform brilliantly in the upcoming series. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?
