Harris wants to be retained for Adelaide Test – Cricket News Update
Australian fast bowler, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 and looks forward to perform in front of his friends and family.
The Aussies went into the third Test match at WACA with a four-pronged pace attack, which demolished the Men In Blue by an innings margin. Despite troubling the Indians with exceptional movement both ways, Harris could only grab two wickets on the bouncy track of Perth with teammates, Ben Hilfenhaus and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/PM-Siddle-c2197 again sharing the limelight with 8 and 6 scalps respectively.
With the final game being played at Adelaide, the inclusion of spinner http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Nathan-Michael-Lyon-c78822 is a necessity which will see a change in the composition of the Kangaroos' bowling line up.
With Hilfenhaus and Siddle almost a certainty for the clash, there will be one place up for grabs for either Harris or left-armer, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mitchell-Aaron-Starc-c76392, who too impressed with four key scalps.
Harris, who returned after a troublesome injury layoff, was pretty keen to prolong his stint with the national team for the final five-day game.
"Sidds (Siddle) wants to play. We are pretty keen to win the series 4-0. It is probably out of me and Starcy to miss out of the bowling group. It is very competitive these days," http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Harris-c61739 was quoted as saying by Fox Sports.
In a stop start career so far, the player has featured in only 9 Test matches, but with 37 wickets at an impressive average of 22.02, he is held in good esteem by the selectors and skipper, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MJ-Clarke-c1978.
Adelaide ironically is Harris’ former home ground where he has fond memories of playing his early cricket. His mother died of cancer five years ago and the player feels emotionally attached to the surroundings.
"It would mean a lot to play again in Adelaide in front of family and friends. I have to pinch myself. I think of her each time I am about to bowl, touch my chest where I have a tattoo of her. I think she would be proud. She used to watch me at Adelaide Oval," he said.
