Cameron White’s ‘cannonball’ form could power Test call

Victorian middle-order batsman Cameron White cannonball run glut in one-day internationals,including the recent one held at Vizag,has probably shortlisted him for a recall into the Australian Test team.

Victorian middle-order batsman Cameron White cannonball run glut in one-day internationals,including the recent one held at Vizag,has probably shortlisted him for a recall into the Australian Test team.

White’s 89 off 49 balls against India was a brutal reminder of his prowess and Australia’s selectors are happily placed in making a choice between finesse or a one-man firestorm. Between Usman Khawaja,Callum Ferguson or White.

“I still want to play Test cricket for Australia,and the best opportunity I can give myself to do that is to play well for Australia in this format and Victoria when I get to play first-class cricket,” Fox Sports quoted White,as saying.

He added: “I think I know what I need to do,score as many runs as I can,and if I can bowl a bit that would help also. I hope I’m not far away. You’d have to ask the selectors,I don’t know whether I’m next in line or 20 or 30 blokes down the track.”

White played four Tests against India in 2008.

“It was a great thing,something no one can take away from me,” he said.
