NEW DELHI: Jason Gillespie, a former fast bowler for Australia, said it's thrilling to call up teenage opener Sam Konstas to the Test team for the fourth and fifth Test matches against India. He encourages the hosts to include the young player in the starting lineup.
Konstas would be the youngest player to play in the longer format since current captain Pat Cummins made his debut in 2011 and the fourth-youngest men's Test debutant in Australia's history if chosen for the Boxing Day Test in Melbourne, which begins on December 26.
