England, 10th July 2024; After a thrilling victory over India in the World Championship’s first season, the Australian Legends will now advance to the semifinals. It is enough to say that the Australia Champions are one of the most formidable teams right now because of the involvement of legends like Dan Christian and Brett Lee who have driven the team and seized every opportunity along the way.
Taking out time from their busy practice schedule, Australian pace bowler Brett Lee added props for Australia’s performance after their first loss against Pakistan, “It’s obviously been a wonderful week for us. After our loss against Pakistan and then to have three wins in the tournament is fantastic. So, we are starting to find some form.”
The Australian Legends accompanied by their entourage also emerged victorious in the tournament’s fifth match defeating South Africa by a margin of 104 runs.
In reference to the Australian squad’s continuous fitness showcase since the days they have been playing international cricket, Brett Lee shares, “I believe that as professionals we are purely making effort to ensure that we arrive at that environment ready to go, as everyone does that.”
Sharing more on the consistency of the squad’s performance, Brett Lee added, “A terrific job is everyone coming together to play and looking forward to winning it while having some fun.”
Talking about India’s attack and performance last night, Brett Lee shares, “I think India has got a great side they have knowledge and heaps of experience when it comes to performing in reference to the attack and performance last night. Ultimately, we batted where we were at 112 in the first innings and managed to reach 199 which meant that India had to chase 200.”
Sharing thoughts on the Pakistan squad’s performance, Brett Lee shares, “That's the thing that you know. These different sides that were up against the different countries. There are a lot of players that are still playing competitive cricket and that's why the standards so good. That's why the tournament is a success.”
Talking more on reconnecting with Australian Squad, Brett Lee shares, “You know the standard of cricket and the caliber of players that we are up against. So, see we are having fun and we don’t try to look too far ahead. I adore the Australian cricket team because we have a history together. Most of us have engaged in joint play. I haven’t had the opportunity to play with a few of the guys on the team before. By referring to them as teammates you are recognizing their accomplishments and relevant careers.”
In the end speaking about India’s performance in T20 World Cup and ace bowler Jasprit Bumrah, Brett Lee concludes, “Their batting order which includes players who can dominate at every position from top to bottom speaks volumes. Their middle order is loaded with power and they have hitters who can put runs on the board quickly. In my opinion Jasprit Bumrah is simply exceptional."
Brett Lee goes on to say how much he admires Bumrah saying, “He is the best bowler in all formats right now and leads the attack. Bumrah can keep up an amazing pace while shaping the new ball away. His tournament performance demonstrated his leadership abilities as he took about 15 wickets with remarkable economy. He is absolutely exceptional and India is deserving of praise for their accomplishments.”
