Langer Slams Non-selection Of Bancroft In Australia Test Team For West Indies Series
The West Australian: Former Australia head coach Justin Langer has slammed the non-selection of Cameron Bancroft in the Test team for the upcoming series against the West Indies, adding that the right-handed opener will be gutted by it.
Bancroft has been the leading run-scorer in the Sheffield Shield for the past two seasons while guiding Western Australia to back-to-back triumphs. But he was overlooked by selectors, who announced that Steve Smith will be the new opener for the Test team post David Warner’s retirement from the format.
Cameron Green will bat at number four, while Matthew Renshaw will be the reserve batter. Langer had coached Bancroft in Western Australia team and even in the national side during 2019 Ashes. “The non-selection of Cameron Bancroft for this next test match against the West Indies is disappointing. He will be gutted.”
