Shane Connolly, father for Test debutant Cooper, joined Triple M’s Rush Hour this afternoon live from Sri Lanka.
“It’s unreal. Me as an old crusty cricketer, you always dream of donning the baggy green. But I was never good enough. For your son to do it is a very, very special moment.”
SHANE CONNOLLY ON COOPER’S DEBUT:
Connolly explained how much notice the family got before his son’s debut and Cooper’s backyard cricket upbringing.
“He phoned us last night, about 6 o’clock last night and he said we can’t tell anyone.”
