Dubai Young Sam Konstas has certainly got talent for international cricket and a “bit of an attitude to go with it” but it won’t be an easy debut for the teenager against a world class bowling attack, reckons legendary Ricky Ponting.

Australia’s newest batting sensation Konstas, 19, is set to make his debut in Boxing Day Test against India. With only 11 first-class matches under his belt, Konstas will take the opening slot alongside the experienced Usman Khawaja in the fourth Test starting here Thursday with Australia desperate to find the right combination at the top.
