Young Australian batsman Cameron Bancroft was impressive in his debut Test against England, where he scored an unbeaten 78-run. However, in the second Test, he got run out by during his short stay at the crease.

“He (Warner) probably made a bit of a mistake. I trusted his call and he was very definitive in that and then changed his mind,” said Bancroft.

“Talk about Mother Cricket coming back and biting you on the arse. I was thinking about a month ago that I hadn’t been run out in a four-day game.”

Talking about his opening partner, he added “He’s (Warner) been great. We’ve got to know each other personally a little bit and the more we play cricket together the more relationships and partnerships develop. One thing we’ve both done quite well is been able to get off strike… we’ve got a lot of singles and that’s probably a pretty good reflection of your ability to function (together) really well.”

Bancroft quoted while concluding “Always in the first session at the WACA it can be quite hard work, but like anything, if you’re willing to put in the hard yards early you can reap rewards later in the game. It’s such a fast outfield that you don’t have to worry too much about scoring, the ball goes through the infield and you instantly get two even if you don’t hit it really well. That’s the beauty of playing at the WACA.”

The third Ashes Test will undergo at the Perth from December 14.
