Revelling in the joy of Konstas\u2019 hitting a breathtaking half-century on debut have been his family members, including his elder brother Billy. \u201cIn the backyard, we did have the auto-wicketkeeper, so the ramp (shot) was out of play. I didn\u2019t know what to expect, to be honest with you.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"I was shaking, my heart rate was up, and I was like, \u2018Sammy, straight bat, straight bat\u2019, but yeah \u2026 it works! We had no expectation coming into today. We were just taking it moment by moment,\" said Billy on SEN Radio.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Asked about his view on Konstas\u2019 shoulder collision with Virat Kohli, Billy said, \"I didn\u2019t mind it \u2013 it added a bit of a spectacle to cricket, a bit of rugby league action going on in the cricket space. Out on the field (Sam) has got such a hard exterior, but off the field he\u2019s such a humble guy.\"<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Billy, a physiotherapist by profession, stated Sam always had the ability to be a three-format player for Australia, but the teenager recently found a way to bring his full array of shots towards red-ball cricket.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cHe had all the gears from a young age \u2026 I just think learning how to shift through the gears has developed quite recently, in terms of being confident enough to play 360 (degrees). I think the key for Sam is his bad days and good days look very similar. He scores a hundred or gets out for a duck, he\u2019ll come home same attitude, same mindset, so I think that\u2019s the key. Don\u2019t ride the highs and lows of the sport, just be present.\"<\/p>\r\n\r\n
