"Shami is a world-class player for a reason": Connolly on semi-final challenge
With Matthew Short sidelined due to injury ahead of Australia's Champions Trophy semi-final clash, the team management made a bold decision to bring in Cooper Connolly as the opener alongside Travis Head, as per ICC. While Connolly was dismissed early on from Mohammed Shami, the 21-year-old went on to snap the all-important wicket of Indian skipper Rohit Sharma in a tense semi-final chase. Sharing his experience of the high-octane outing in the midst of the Sheffield Shield season, Connolly told reporters, "As a kid, you always want to represent your country, and to walk out there in a semi-final was an unbelievable experience, and I'll take a lot of learnings from it," as quoted from the official website of ICC. Connolly was set up by Mohammed Shami in the powerplay as the veteran quick got rid of the left-hander with a gorgeous out-swinging delivery. "Shami is a world-class player for a reason. He's played a lot of cricket," Connolly said.
