Sam Konstas can't wait for Round 2 against Bumrah: 'I'll look to keep targeting him. Hopefully he…'

Hindustan Times  

Team India were jolted in the first session of the Melbourne Test as Australia’s debutant, Sam Konstas, displayed remarkable composure, dominating the visiting bowlers. The right-handed batter fearlessly attempted reverse scoops against Jasprit Bumrah, India's premier pacer, who had made life tough for Australian batters throughout the series. Australian batsman Sam Konstas looks at India's Jasprit Bumrah on the first day of the fourth Test Konstas was particularly impressive against Bumrah, smashing him for 18 runs in the 11th over of the innings, hitting two fours and a six. The aggressive knock from Konstas, however, ensured that Usman Khawaja also found his footing in the series after a poor performance in the opening three Tests; while Konstas took on the Indian bowlers, Khawaja played his naturally defensive game and remained unbeaten on 38 off 73 deliveries by Lunch.
