Australian all-rounder Cameron Green says his batting evolution has been significant as he prepares for the third Ashes Test in Adelaide. Despite a career affected by injuries and mixed scores in the series so far, Green believes his batting development is stronger than ever.
Green, 26, highlighted that his batting confidence and shot selection have improved. Earlier in his career, he relied mainly on traditional strokes like the cover drive and pull shot. Now he has developed a wider range of techniques, such as confidently walking down the wicket and backing away to play strategic shots suited to specific situations.
A key factor in his batting growth has been learning from Australia’s experienced batting lineup. Training and playing alongside stalwarts like Steve Smith, Usman Khawaja and Marnus Labuschagne has given Green insight into handling different match scenarios, helping shape his approach at the crease.
Reflecting on his dismissal in the Gabba Test, Green acknowledged the importance of playing positively while also recognizing how challenging decisions in a Test innings can affect the team’s total. He described the experience as a valuable learning moment for future matches.
With Australia leading the Ashes series 2–0, Green stressed the need for focus and resilience. He said staying level-headed and maintaining form will be vital as the team looks to seal victory in Adelaide and retain the Ashes after nearly a decade.
