Australian all-rounder Cameron Green failed in the third Ashes Test. In the first innings of the third match, which began on Wednesday in Adelaide, Green returned to the pavilion without scoring a single run. He faced only two balls before Jofra Archer had him caught by Brydon Carse. This innings was nothing short of a nightmare for Green, who recently fetched a hefty price of ₹25.20 crore in the IPL 2026 auction.
Jofra Archer's deadly bowling
England's fast bowler Jofra Archer gave Cameron Green no chance. Green's attempt to play a drive off Archer's fast and accurate delivery proved costly, and he was caught. With this wicket, Archer further increased the pressure on the Australian middle order. Archer bowled brilliantly in this innings, taking three crucial wickets so far.
The state of Australia's innings
In the Adelaide Test, Australia won the toss and elected to bat first, but the English bowlers maintained pressure from the start. Australia had a poor start. The team lost four wickets for just 94 runs. Travis Head, Jake Weatherald, Green, and Marnus Labuschagne returned to the pavilion quickly. Usman Khawaja, however, anchored the innings from one end, batting cautiously and scoring a half-century. Wicketkeeper-batsman Alex Carey also provided good support. At the time of writing, the Australians had scored close to 200 runs for the loss of four wickets.
Discussion on social media
Cameron Green's dismissal for a duck became a topic of discussion on social media. After fetching a huge sum in the IPL auction, fans were expecting a big innings from him, but the pressure and circumstances of Test cricket did not allow him to settle down. Cricket experts believe that players like Green should not be judged by one or two innings, but this dismissal was certainly disappointing.
Cameron Green lived up to his name
There was a lot of discussion surrounding Cameron Green from the beginning, and he lived up to his name. The Australian player was bought by Kolkata Knight Riders for ₹25.20 crore. His base price was two crore rupees. He was sold for nearly 13 times his base price. He became the third most expensive player in IPL history and the most expensive foreign player in IPL history.
Franchises opened their coffers for Green
Green had mistakenly registered his name in the batsmen's category. However, as soon as his name came up, four franchises opened their coffers. Initially, there was a bidding war between Mumbai Indians and Rajasthan Royals. Then KKR entered the fray. Finally, there was an interesting battle between Chennai and Kolkata. Both bid aggressively. However, in the end, KKR won the bid and acquired Green. With this, KKR has found a replacement for Andre Russell, who has retired from the IPL.
