Cameron Green's game-changing potential is well docu🔯mented among his Australian teammates, who feel that his presence in the dressing room has got a new meaning following his success in Indian sub-continenღt in the last four months.
Green scored his ꧙first Test century during his maiden Test tour of India earlier this year. He hit an aggressive 114 of just 143 balls in the fourth Test of the Border-Gavaskar T♏rophy in Ahmedabad in March this year.
Green carried ꦜon his form in this year's IPL, scoring 452 runs from 16 innings at a strike rate north of 160 for Mumbai Indians, which also includes a 47-ball ton that took the five-time champions to the play-offs.
"His (Green) presence around the around the tea🧸m has definitely changed after being a part of that IPL and after scoring that hundred in Ahmedabad," 𝐆senior Australia off-spinner Nathan Lyon told cricket.com.au ahead of the World Test Championship Final against India.
"He's growing in confidence and being himself more, coming out of his shell a little bit more around the team. I think that just comes from being able to 🍷hang in there and play the IPL and be around the l💦ikes of (Mumbai and India Test captain) Rohit Sharma and these guys to learn off them," he added.
The WTC Final betweeജn I♈ndia and Australia will be played at The Oval starting Wednesday.
Australia opener Usman Khawaja, who witnessed Green from close quarters during their 208-run stand for the fifth wicket in Ahmedabad in March this year, feels that knock c♍ompletely transformed the youngster.
"I know what it's like – it took me nine or 10 (goes) to get my first hundred over th💖e span of like four years and I know what the feeling ওwas to be able to achieve that," he said.
"After I got my first one, the floodgates just opened and it's always the case. You get the first one and the next few just happen because you've been 🎃there, you've done it. And I think as teammates, we all knew that. He's (Green) such a legend, he's such a nice guy. You only want the best for him, so I really enjoyed it," Khawaja added.
