Cameron Green Says Bowling ‘felt Really Good’ After Breaking 140kph
Cameron Green: Cameron Green says he is ready to unleash his full pace against England in the Ashes, revealing that his titanium-stabilised spine has enabled him to break the 140kph barrier in a match for the first time since his back surgery.
Speaking on cricket.com.au’s Unplayable Podcast, the Australian all-rounder said his recent Sheffield Shield outing gave him the confidence that he can withstand a heavy workload throughout the five-Test series. “It felt really good,” Green said of the 16 overs he bowled against Queensland. “It was 35 degrees day one, and I was like, ‘Oh my god, have I completely lost my bowling fitness here?’ But it was nice to look around and all the bowlers who bowl heaps were also struggling. The body felt really good after – so big tick.”
