‘He’s Going To Be The Main Man’: Santner Backs Duffy To Lead Pace Attack Against West Indies
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: New Zealand captain Mitchell Santner has backed Jacob Duffy to step up as the 'main man' of the Black Caps’ pace attack during the upcoming five-match ODI series against the West Indies, saying the experienced seamer has earned the opportunity to lead a youthful bowling group.
With first-choice quicks Matt Henry, Will O’Rourke and Kyle Jamieson rested following recent Test commitments and Ben Sears ruled out through injury, Duffy will enter the series as New Zealand’s senior pace option.
“We’ve obviously seen how good he is for the last few years. He's taken his opportunities, but now he’s the front man in this bowling unit. There are a couple of younger guys around him, so he’s going to be the main man here,” Santner said ahead of the match.
