Australian cricketer Cameron Green made sure that India A bowlers receive enough match practise in their ongoing three-day tour game at Sydney’s Drummoyne Oval. The young all-rounder scored an unbeaten 125 to help his side, Australia A, gain a handy 59-run first-innings lead over the visitors. Apparently, he also made sure that India A’s batting routine was cut short in their second innings, as he backed up his own batting performance with a superb spell of fast bowling.
