Batting At No.3 Was A Surprise, But Would Have Asked For It To Be Honest, Says Bethell
Royal Challengers Bangalore: After hitting an unbeaten 50 off 37 balls, including smashing the winning runs, in England's 8-wicket win over New Zealand in the first Test, batter Jacob Bethell said he would have asked to bat at No.3 on debut if he wasn’t given the surprise invitation by the team think-tank.
“No. I mean maybe a surprise (on one level), but I would have asked for it to be honest. I like batting up the order. So yeah, I was really happy that the opportunity arose. It was everything I dreamed of. Ever since I was a little kid I’ve always dreamed of playing Test cricket.”
“I’ve always wanted to bat in the top 4 so three is perfect. I think my game is fit to play any style. We saw a bit more of an attacking style (in the second innings), but I can also absorb a bit of pressure. I’m sure at times in my career there will be times to do that as well.”
