Sydney, December 31, : , Tony Dodemaide of Australia believes that Mitchell Swepson is likely to be paired with Nathan Lyon at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) in the fourth Ashes test.He said the 28-year old’s inexperience in red-ball cricket would not hinder his selection. The wicket at SCG is traditionally spin-friendly.Australia often uses two tweakers when playing matches there.
Swepson, Lyon’s only specialist spinner, is in great form and has a good chance to be included in the XI in the fourth Test that begins on January 5.
Dodemaide said that Mitchell (Swepson), who has been with the team for a while, is doing well and was very comfortable around the group,” Dodemaide told Sportsday, which was sen.com.au on Friday.
He has an excellent record in the Sheffield Shield, but he wasn’t playing Shield cricket this year.His spin is excellent.
Swepson played in two Shield matches this April, and took nine wickets over four innings.However, he has only played one game in longer format since.
Queenslander played in Australia’s A team that faced the England Lions in Queensland.He took 2/26 and/or 2/124.
