00:00I put a lot more time into my batting definitely. I think that's just the nature of it. Bowling

00:06you're sometimes a bit limited in the amount of training you can do. I love batting up

00:12the order, but certainly aware that you have to earn your stripes as a batsman a bit and

00:16sometimes spots pop up as a bowler a little bit more often, just the nature of the beast.

00:23I've done it my whole life, starting the teams down the order a bit and then eventually work

00:28your way up. Hopefully I can do that as well.

00:31As I said before, no matter what level of cricket you're playing, you've got to earn

00:36your stripes. You start in the team, play a few games here and there and hope to cement

00:40your spot. I'm trying to look at this team the same. It's obviously nice when you've

00:45got blokes like Travis Head who's peeling off hundreds around you. You've got Mitch

00:49Stark and Josh Hazlewood opening the bowling, so it's nice to be able to have those boys

00:53the experience to lean back on. Personally, it's just nice to be able to go out there

00:58and get some opportunity with the bat and with the ball. It's awesome having those boys

01:03around as well, because it certainly makes it easier to transition into the team.
