‘RCB fans khush toh bahot honge’ – Fans react as Cameron Green scores his second Test ton against New Zealand in first Test

Cameron Green’s counterattacking century proved pivotal in Australia’s recovery after New Zealand’s pace attack. The Kiwi pace attack caused chaos on an intriguing opening day of the first Test in Wellington. Green’s unbeaten 103 on a day dominated by bowlers not only spared Australia from a potential batting collapse but also highlighted the selectors’ unwavering determination to include him in the formidable Australian lineup.

With fast bowler Matt Henry leading the charge with figures of 4-43, the Black Caps posed a serious threat to dismiss their highly regarded opponents for a below-par total. However, the star Australia pacer Green discovered capable partners in the lower order and initiated a memorable onslaught just before stumps, ultimately reaching his second Test century.

Green was just nine runs short of his century when second-last batter Nathan Lyon was caught behind off the final delivery of the penultimate over of the day. With time ticking away and opportunities dwindling, Green aggressively struck boundaries through mid-on and extra cover. Despite a wild swing that didn’t result in runs. But after that he managed to reach his century with a perfectly timed back cut off the last ball of the day.

It feels really good: Cameron Green

The star Australia all-rounder after his brilliant century said that the feeling after a century is really incredible, largely due to the camaraderie within the team. Green even said that it was quite challenging on the field. The star batter also said that it was simply one of those days where someone had to hold their ground, and also the star batter added that he was brilliant to be among the runs.

“It feels really good, mostly because of the way we are with the team. It was pretty tough out there. It was just one of those days that someone needed to stay out there, and I’m just glad it was me,” Green said after his brilliant fighting knock against New Zealand.
