US EditionAustralian Opener Konstas Says He Has 'Come a Long Way'
- Australian opener Sam Konstas is set to earn his third Test cap in the first Test against the West Indies at Kensington Oval on June 25, 2025.
- Konstas regained selection due to Steve Smith's injury and Marnus Labuschagne's drop amid concerns about Konstas' temperament in Test cricket.
- Since his blazing 60 off 65 balls in the Boxing Day Test against India last summer, Konstas has worked on controlling his emotions and refining when to attack or defend.
- Konstas, aged 19, said, "I'm not trying to prove to anyone how I'm going to play" and trusts his support team who understand his game and approach.
- His recall suggests Australia seeks stability at opener and hopes Konstas can capitalize on his opportunity in a strong, competitive squad.
