He (Jadeja) was just giving me some awesome tips: Matthew Kuhnemann
Matthew Kuhnemann reflecting on his tour spoke about how playing with Nathan Lyon and tips from Ravindra Jadeja were useful for him. “It was probably about 15 minutes, he (Jadeja) was just giving me some awesome tips. We talked about everything. He gave me some good tips for the next time we’re in the subcontinent and some tips to go back home with as well,” he said.
Speaking about Nathan Lyon, Matthew Kuhnemann said, “The way that it happened, I wouldn’t change it for the world. Nathan Lyon took myself and Todd under his wing from the get-go, he was pretty much like a big brother to us over here. I’m really keen to tinker with a couple of things, trying to just keep improving my skills and play as much cricket as I can.” Australia will conclude their tour of India by playing 3 ODIs before the start of the IPL. The first Ind vs Aus ODI is in Mumbai on 17th March.
