Konstas Is Not Warner’s Clone, He Is His Natural Successor: Chappell
Boxing Day Test: As the teenage batter Sam Konstas is set to make his debut at MCG in the crucial Boxing Day Test against India, former Australia cricketer believes that the youngster is ex-opener David Warner's natural successor not his clone
Sam Konstas will become the 468th Australian men's Test player on Boxing Day. The 19-year-old will also become the youngest to pull on the Baggy Green since an 18-year-old Pat Cummins made his debut in 2011.
"At just 19, Konstas is on the precipice of history. He will be the youngest ever to open the batting in a Test for Australia. His debut on Boxing Day is both exciting and daunting. Konstas possesses the temperament and ability to thrive, as evidenced by prodigious run-scoring and rapid adaptation," Chappell wrote in his column for The Age.
