(I&#8217;m) trying to not think about it too much but if the opportunity arises, I&#8217;ll do my best to grab it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Richardson, 28, has had a torrid time in the recent past with injuries to his right shoulder and hamstring. He feels that he&#8217;s yet to regain his rhythm but is making steady progress.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It was a bit of a surprise (Test recall), having only played a couple of second XI games and one Shield game,&#8221; he said. &#8220;It was nice, but I feel I&#8217;m not completely there yet.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I feel like I&#8217;ve got a bit more of the process to go, especially coming back from the shoulder and hamstring (injuries), to get back there consistently.&#8221;    <\/p>\n<p>Australia&#8217;s head coach Andrew McDonald revealed that Richardson bowled a lot in the nets recently but would be &#8220;capable of bowling 40-plus overs if he was called upon&#8221; for the New Year&#8217;s Test in Sydney.<\/p>\n<p>Richardson last played a red-ball game for Australia against England at the Adelaide Oval in December 2021. He has claimed 11 scalps in three Tests at an average of 22.09, including a five-wicket haul.<\/p>\n<p>Australia have already lost the services of Josh Hazlewood for the entire series with a calf injury.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async>\nfunction loadFacebookScript(){\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\nn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\nn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,\ndocument,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', '529056027274737');\nfbq('track', 'PageView');\n}\nwindow.addEventListener('load', (event) => {\n\tsetTimeout(function(){\n        loadFacebookScript();\n\t}, 5000);\n});\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/sports\/cricket\/jhye-richardson-eager-to-grab-if-opportunity-arises-in-new-year-test-at-scg-against-india-2025-01-01-968903\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Image Source : GETTY IMAGES Jhye Richardson.
