David embracing World Cup in return from injury
Australian blaster Tim David is preparing to be eased back into the T20 side during the opening stages of the World Cup as he steels himself for maximum impact towards the pointy end of the global tournament.
David showed no signs of the hamstring injury that ended his Big Bash season at Australia’s training session on Friday, launching all comers – including the Aussie quicks and a handful of local spinners – to every corner of the Colombo Cricket Club Ground.
More than a dozen balls ended up on the roof of the Gymkhana Club lounge directly behind the sightscreen at the suburban ground as David and teammate Marcus Stoinis had hospitality staff and this reporter constantly ducking for cover.
