AUS vs SA: Alex Carey backs inexperienced Australia bowling to defend big totals

India Today  

Alex Carey has said he has confidence in the inexperienced bowling attack of Australia to defend any big total before their game against South Africa. Speaking to the reporters, Carey was asked if the bowling lineup could defend big targets on the flat tracks in Pakistan. "Spencer Johnson's really damaging up the top, left arm seamer and so has Ben Dwarshuis, and you've got Sean Abbott ready to go as well so we've come into this tournament really confident that our bowling attack will still do a fantastic job without the big three - and hopefully as a batting group we can score as many runs and make it easy for our bowlers," said Carey. "Not concerning, look I think England played really well and I just think the other night I think whoever bowled it was going to be difficult in those conditions, so I think it's a great chance to throw the ball around you know at times we might see Marnus bowl, Matt Short, Travis Head I think the way that Steve Smith uses the bowlers is a strength of ours."
