Last year, Morris won the Bradman Young Cricketer of the Year at the Australian Cricket Awards and has now earned a call-up to Australia\u2019s Test squad for the first Test against Pakistan at Perth starting from December 14.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cHe actually reminds a lot of a young Pat Cummins. That's a massive rap because \u2018Cummo\u2019 first came & burst on the scene back when he was about 17 years of age as the boy from Penrith with big blue eyes who was excited to bowl fast. He was like a sponge.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cWith the real limited time I've had the chance to speak to Lance, it\u2019s just been that he's just been excited about cricket, he understands his game. He\u2019s got a very switched-on brain, as most fast bowlers do, I might add (laughs).\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cI'm super impressed, he's got a big career ahead of him. What's going to happen this year though? I'm not sure, because there's three guys ahead of him that are doing a great job,\u201d said Lee at Fox Cricket\u2019s season launch event.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Though Morris is highly-talented Lee thinks he will have to bide his time as Cummins, Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Starc are the first-choice fast-bowlers for head coach Andrew McDonald in the upcoming international men\u2019s summer in Australia.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cPace is something that I love watching with these young kids coming through. But certainly, when you get to over that 140 km\/h barrier, there's no reason with his action, his temperament, his technique, he's young and he's excited that he can't go up to that 150 km\/h bracket.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cHe needs to just keep taking wickets. On the other side of the coin though you\u2019ve got three experienced campaigners in Starc, Cummins and Hazelwood that have done the business for Australia. You have to bide your time. It was like when I was trying to break in the Australian cricket team, you\u2019ve got to take wickets and bowl quick.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cYouth is what it's about, but experience as well is very important. Mitchell Starc - when he's on, he's the world's best and he swings the ball back. Pat Cummins is the golden child like David Beckham, he gets the ball in his hand, and he just creates opportunities.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cThen Hazelwood is McGrath-like, that human metronome. There\u2019s three guys that are in the prime and would be pretty hard to knock off,\u201d concluded Lee.<\/p>\r\n\r\n", "image": "https:\/\/img.cricketnmore.com\/uploads\/2023\/12\/lance-morris-reminds-a-lot-of-a-young-pat-cummins-says-brett-lee.jpg", "alt_img": "Lance Morris reminds a lot of a young Pat Cummins, says Brett Lee", "alt_title": "Bowling in India sounds like bit of a challenge, but will be exciting nonetheless: Lance Morris, skp", "image1": null, "video": null, "seo_title": "Lance Morris Reminds A Lot Of A Young Pat Cummins, Says Brett Lee On Cricketnmore", "seo_desc": "Lance Morris Reminds A Lot Of A Young Pat Cummins, Says Brett Lee, Bradman Young Cricketer: Australia\u2019s fast-bowling legend Brett Lee believes young tearaway pacer Lance Morris reminds him a lot of the.", "seo_keywords": "Lance Morris, Pat Cummins, Brett Lee, Bradman Young Cricketer, Australian Cricket Awards, Fox Cricket, Though Morris, Josh Hazlewood, Mitchell Starc, Andrew McDonald, David Beckham, Then Hazelwood", "tag": "", "tagging": "Lance Morris, Pat Cummins, Brett Lee, Bradman Young Cricketer, Australian Cricket Awards, Fox Cricket, Though Morris, Josh Hazlewood, Mitchell Starc, Andrew McDonald, David Beckham, Then Hazelwood", "status": "1", "img_rpt": "0", "google": "1", "standout": "0", "edapps": "0", "pulse": "0", "no_index": "0", "feed": "0", "fixture": null, "slug": "lance-morris-reminds-a-lot-of-a-young-pat-cummins-says-brett-lee", "user_id": "0", "read_count": "0", "ians_date": null, "ians_time": null, "server_time": null, "trash": "0", "view_count": "1271", "page_break": "0", "instant_articles": "1", "auto_link": "1", "created": "2023-12-08 15:52:03", "updated": "2023-12-08 15:52:03", "img_from": "Image Source: IANS", "img_source": null, "schedule_publish": null, "news_keywords": "Lance Morris, Pat Cummins, Brett Lee, Bradman Young Cricketer, Australian Cricket Awards, Fox Cricket, Though Morris, Josh Hazlewood, Mitchell Starc, Andrew McDonald, David Beckham, Then Hazelwood", "livescore_text": null, "livescore_link": null, "btn_text": null, "resend_feed": "1", "google_feed": "1", "read_more": "0", "posted_by": "23", "jio_date": "2023-12-08 15:52:03", "scheduled": "0", "news_now": "1", "breaking_news": "1", "google_date": null, "featured": "0", "pred_match_id": null, "article_content_type": null, "link": "https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/cricket-news\/lance-morris-reminds-a-lot-of-a-young-pat-cummins-says-brett-lee-133673" }
