David Warner could be very completely satisfied for his Sunrisers Hyderabad teammate Thangarasu Natarajan’s Test call-up however he’s “not sure” if the Tamil Nadu left-arm seamer can persistently hit one size, over after over, within the conventional format.
Natarajan, after a massively profitable IPL, joined the Indian contingent as a web bowler however has subsequently risen up the ranks to make his ODI and T20 International debuts.

Asked if Natarajan can translate his T20 success within the Test match area, his IPL franchise captain gave an attention-grabbing reply.
“Good query however I’m not too positive. You guys could be understanding his (Natarajan) Ranji Trophy stats and the way he delivers day in and day trip.
“I know he has line and lengths to do that, but obviously, back to back overs in a Test match? I am not a hundred percent sure,” Warner mentioned throughout a digital information convention on Saturday.

However, Warner added that similar to Mohammed Siraj, who has proven his wares in pink ball cricket on the first-class stage, Natarajan would be capable of do the identical.
“I know a fair bit about Siraj and how well he has gone in Ranji Trophy, him backing up with repeated amount of overs. Given how his (Siraj’s debut) debut went, I am hopeful, Nattu will be able to do the same if he is included in that Test squad,” Warner mentioned.
He was all reward for the 29-year-old, who missed the start of his first baby as he was occupied with IPL and nationwide group engagements.
“I feel it is an ideal reward for Nattu. I feel provided that he was coming over right here after lacking the start of his baby to be a web bowler after which being injected into the precise squad is a superb achievement for him and congratulations to him.
“He is a very, very good bowler and I got to see that and captain him for Sunrisers Hyderabad. I wish him all the best and if he does get that opportunity, we know he will be comfortable and will know what he has to do.”
