Up the Guts
Steve Williams (59)
The good thing is Pucovski originally took time out on his own volition so you’d imagine he and his support group have said that he is ok to play/be around the team. If he is going to play, a test debut against Sri Lanka at home is about as gentle an introduction he can get, I’d be concerned about him being thrown in the deep end in England with the frenetic crowd and media.https://www.smh.com.au/sport/cricke...-to-australia-test-squad-20190109-p50qbk.html
So it seems Will Pucovski is going to get a test call up. He seems a bloody talent but even putting aside his youth and inexperience (8 first class games) should we be rushing him in considering his recent head knock issues and mental health concerns? If it's just about getting him among the team and experience, then ok, but if he is likely to play it worries me a bit.
