Adam Milne relishing national recall – Cricket News Update
New Zealand’s young medium-pace bowler, Adam Milne, on Wednesday insisted that he is a different player than the one that made a brief appearance for the Kiwis two years ago.
The 20-year-old Palmerston North-born fast bowler made a comeback to the national set up after almost two years, when he was named in New Zealand’s 15-man final squad for next month’s World T20 Championship, on Tuesday morning.
The http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755, and after playing two games in five days, at a bowling average of 94, he was sidelined for an unlimited period. Milne said that he has changed a lot since then.
"I'm just learning more skills. More slower balls, how to bowl in Twenty/20 and how to change it up. It's unpredictable in terms of how you're bowling, where you're bowling and your field setting," the right-arm medium pacer added further.
New Zealand Cricket’s national selection manager, Kim Littlejohn, said he was pleased to see Milne returning to the ranks, and hoped the rookie seamer to make the best out of the opportunity to cement his place in the squad.
“Adam Milne has impressed during his time with the winter development squad and his extra pace offers something a little different,” said Littlejohn at a press conference called to announce the World T20 squad. “We are confident he will have an impact in
international cricket and will seize this opportunity,” the national selection manager added further.
The Kiwis will, in all probability, field the same squad during the two-T20 series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750, next month. Milne will also head to India soon to get some experience of playing in subcontinent conditions ahead of the World T20 Championship.
