Green hopes to improve output after breakthrough fifty at No.3

July 6, 2025

Cameron Green was pleased with his fighting 52 in the second innings of the Grenada Test against West Indies.
It was his first fifty batting at No.3.
Green and Steve Smith added a crucial 93-run partnership. Smith scored 71.
"You always need an innings here and there just to get you going and hopefully today was one of those," Green said.
Green missed the 2024-25 home season following back surgery.
He scored three centuries in five County games for Gloucestershire.
Green's initiation at No.3 had been underwhelming until Saturday night.
He followed scores of 4, 0, 3, 15 and 26 with a gritty and patient 52.
"If you ask most of the guys in our changeroom, they've all batted number three their whole junior career and no different with me," he said of his new batting position.
"I've batted number four for WA (and Australia), being one spot up is no different."
Green is not yet bowling due to his back injury.
"To be able to sneak into (the team) while still not bowling, I'm incredibly grateful for that and hopefully my output can be a little better than it has been."
He hopes to be bowling again in a couple of Shield games, potentially in one-dayers against India in October.
