Hayden Wishes For Renshaw To Open Batting For Australia In Tests Post Warner’s Retirement
The Sydney Morning Herald: Former Australia opener Matthew Hayden believes Matt Renshaw is the best person to be the next Test opener after David Warner’s retirement. His comments come ahead of Australia set to unveil their two-match Test squad for the series against West Indies starting on January 17.
Renshaw averages 29.31 from 14 Tests, and is in a competition with specialist openers Marcus Harris and Cameron Bancroft, as well as from non-specialist openers in Cameron Green and Steven Smith – to see who partners with Usman Khawaja at the top post Warner’s retirement.
"David Warner has had his say in Marcus Harris and Ricky Ponting has had his say on record with (Cameron) Bancroft. I feel like a left-handed opener in Renshaw is that person with age on his side.
