Labuschagne Reveals How ‘slightly Different’ Approach Led To Ashes Call-up
World Test Championship: Australia batter Marnus Labuschagne said that he took things ‘slightly differently’ this year, which helped him bring about a change in his thought process and walk out to bat with a clear mind. The 31-year-old, after suffering a few setbacks, put up top-notch performances in the domestic games, leading to his Ashes call-up.
Since his last century for Australia, which came against England in Manchester two years ago, Labuschagne has been dismissed in single digits 14 times out of 16 Tests. Four of his seven half-centuries in the baggy green have transpired over just two Tests.
His two 50s against India at the MCG last year helped prevent his removal from the Test team, but those considerations were revived after the Sri Lanka series in late summer and the World Test Championship.
