India vs Australia | ‘He’s quite a unique bowler’: Nathan McSweeney opens up on facing Jasprit Bumrah | Cricket News

India vs Australia: Australia opener Nathan McSweeney who made his debut in the 1st Test against India at Perth hasn’t had the best of times against pacer Jasprit Bumrah, getting dismissed him 3 times in 4 innings.
In his debut match, he fell victim to the Indian pacer twice where he was sent back for 10 and 0. In the 2nd Test, he scored 39 and 10 not out but was outdone Bumrah in the first innings.
“To get a bowler like Jasprit early in my career, it’s not going to get much tougher than that and I take some confidence from getting through a spell in Adelaide. The more I face, the more comfortable I’ll get against him,” he was quoted as saying cricket.com.au.
“Facing him for the first time – he’s quite a unique bowler. He’s obviously world-class and a bit different to most bowlers I’ve faced. It’s about adapting to his angle and where he delivers on the crease,” McSweeney added.
The youngster said that the more he plays against a bowler like Bumrah, the more he can improve and even hoped to tackle the fiery pacer in the 3rd Test at Gabba.
“I got two pretty good balls from him [in Perth], so to try and wear that on the chin and trust what I’ve been doing is going to be good enough. He got me again in Adelaide – he’s a great bowler, and really enjoying the experience of trying to work out a game plan on the run against a world-class player. Hopefully, I’ll get better the more I face him and can throw a few more punches here at the Gabba,” he said.

India and Australia are currently tied 1-1 in the 5-match series with the 3rd Test scheduled to begin at Brisbane on December 14.
