Marcus Harris makes every effort to strengthen his case for the Test team as David Warner replacement.

After David Warner announced his retirement from the game’s longest format, Marcus Harris is putting in the effort to take his spot as Australia’s star opener in the Test team. On the second day of the warm-up match between Pakistan and Victoria XI at Junction Oval, he scored a ton of runs. Before the Cricket Australia selectors make a decision on a new opener next month, he hit 126 off just 131 deliveries, including 22 fours and six.

Cameron Bancroft, Matt Renshaw, and Harris are the three specialist openers who might take David Warner place. However, there’s a chance that the selectors will choose to include Cameron Green in the team.

The wicketkeeper-batter for Australia, Alex Carey, said that the team is suffering from a “great headache” right now. He added that they have enough guys who can score runs to fill the top six spots. He continued by showering his teammate Warner, who has had an incredible career over the years, with accolades.

“I believe Cam is talented enough to play for his nation in any position. It is a major dilemma for Australian cricket, once more likely similar to the Cameron and Mitch Marsh predicament. There are a ton of excellent players scoring runs all across the nation. This group includes many excellent players who are capable of finishing anywhere in the top six. If this is Davey’s final game, there are still a few left. Alex Carey was quoted by ESPNCricinfo as saying, “I’m probably more excited about celebrating Davey, a wonderful player, than I am about worrying too much about who will take his place.

After making a quick century for the Victoria XI, Marcus Harris talked candidly about how much he has improved in Test cricket thus far.

“It seems like I’ve played excellent cricket for seven or eight years. Since moving to Victoria, I think I’ve shown my worth sufficiently, particularly in domestic cricket; whether or not that holds true in international cricket is debatable and subject to differing opinions. It’s good if things beyond my control didn’t go my way during my last two of tests when I felt like I was just getting started. “I’ve been in this role for the past few years, so whatever happens, let’s play that game,” Harris declared during the PM’s XI match.
