What was Australia's compulsion, from selector to coach everyone had to field

All the teams are busy preparing for the ICC T20 World Cup. Be it the Indian team or Australia, both have reached West Indies and America for the World Cup. Australia played its warm-up match against the Namibian team today i.e. on 29 May. In this match, Australia won the match by 7 wickets with 10 overs remaining, but this match has come into discussion due to one reason. In this match, Australia's chief selector, batting coach and fielding coach were also seen fielding on the field. These veterans were forced to enter the field

Former veterans had to be brought into the field

In the warm-up match between Australia and Namibia, the Kangaroo team won the toss and decided to bowl first. At the same time, the Namibian team, who came to bowl first, could score only 119 runs at the loss of 9 wickets in 20 overs. When the Australian team was bowling, Australia's chief selector George Bailey, fielding coach Andre Borovac, batting coach Brad Hodge and head coach Andrew McDonald were also seen on the field. Fielding had become very important for these veterans because the Australian team was playing with only 9 players.

The former veteran took 2 catches

Many Australian players have still not joined the team to play IPL 2024. In such a situation, all the players included in the Australian team have not been able to be included in the team yet. For this reason, Australian veterans with official positions came on the field to fill the lack of fielding. The special thing is that during this time Borovac and Bailey also took one catch each, while McDonald also stopped a four by making a brilliant dive on a ball. Considering McDonald's age, this fielding is quite commendable.
