England are all set to take on Australia in the much-hyped Ashes 2023 commencing from 16th June (Friday). All eyes would be on Cameron Green, the flamboyant all-rounder who has become an inseparable part of the Australian team. Cameron Green has been the silent assassin over the last couple of years.

The sensation batter Harry Brook will be targeted by Aussie bowlers as recently his short ball technique was exposed in New Zealand Test Series in New Zealand. The batter didn’t have a promising IPL 2023 as his form could be a concern for the team.

I am pretty excited that there is something that I can use over here – Cameron Green

Cameron Green was expecting that the ball would assist the pacers in England and would swing a lot. Cameron Green was quite excited to use new variations in the Ashes 2023 as this is his maiden Test series in England.

“Especially as a bowler, you look forward to come over here with the swing, I think normally when I bowl in Australia, it is not doing too much. So, I am pretty excited that there is something that I can use over here,” said Cameron Green.

“A few of the guys talk about it swinging a bit too much. So I think just a skill set-up with a wobble seam, just playing around with all that I think,” he added.
