I'm Off Social Media: Will Pucovski Switches Off From Test 'Bat-Off' Talk

By IANS News November 15, 2020 • 11:09 AM View: 1376

In order to stay away from the hype and intense speculation over his selection in the playing XI for the opening Test of the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy, uncapped Australia batsman Will Pucovski has deactivated his social media accounts.

Pucovski, who is among the five uncapped players named in the 17-man Test squad, has made a strong case for selection in the XI with back-to-back double centuries for Victoria in the Sheffield Shield.
