CLOSE-IN: A Mixture Of Guile Is Necessary As Cricket Transforms Into ‘Gully Cricket’ (IANS Column)
![]()
The awesome and aggressive way in which the young Australian opener, Sam Konstas, debuted in the fourth Test match between India and Australia, seems to be the trend the young Gen Z will follow. For him to play ,as one can describe, gully cricket shots against the world’s best pacer, Jasprit Bumrah, was truly an eye opener.
One needs quick reflexes, a great eye, and flexible foot movement—all traits of a youngster—to play in this bizzare manner. One did see it in the batting of Yashasvi Jaiswal, Suryakumar Yadav, and Rishabh Pant and many of the present young cricketers as well; however, for a debutant to do so with such confidence truly establishes this transformation that one will see in Test cricket in the future.
