Justin Langer 21 December 2019

Australian cricket coach Justin Langer says they have a challenge
ahead of them as they head into the Boxing Day test at the MCG on
Thursday. 

Speaking exclusively to 6PR Langer says he's not getting ahead of
himself with calling his team one of the best test sides. 


"When we play New Zealand it's an absolute arm wrestle, whilst we
played great cricket in the first test we're going to have to be
really on top of it to beat the second best team in the
world.
"If we can do that, we're certainly moving in the right
direction," he says.   

Langer has been at the helm of the Aussie cricket team since last
year, but he's starting to reap the rewards after taking over a
troubling side and shared a heartwarming story of a stranger who
approached him in the streets of Fremantle. 

"It looked like a farmer was just walking past me and grabbed
hold of me and he goes 'thank you so much for bringing the
Australian cricket team back... we really like them again', to
see that progress is really heartening," Langer told 6PR.
