<p>Branwell earned the appreciation of India&rsquo;s bowling coach Morne Morkel. &ldquo;I am currently here to practise with the Queensland team. It&rsquo;s the off-season in England, so this is a good city for advanced training. We train at the Gabba. Team India needed net bowlers, so Morne Morkel contacted me. He too played for Surrey,&rdquo; said Branwell, who has played one first-class match and eight List A games for the county. The resident of South London was part of the England U-19 team too.</p>
<p>&ldquo;It was enjoyable bowling to such a big batsman. I am learning many new things and I applied this in the nets against an international player. Shubman is a very smart batsman. He certainly looked a bit wobbly against my deliveries, but his confidence is remarkable. This was an excellent practice session for me, and I hope to play against him someday,&rdquo; remarked Branwell.</p><p>
