Casson ready for top cricket

Published May 3, 2008

SYDNEY, May 2: Beau Casson will enter the big time when he joins his new Australia team-mates at the national camp in Brisbane from Sunday.

Left-arm wrist-spinner Casson was a surprise choice for the West Indies tour and will be trying to impress when the squad gets together.

“I’m feeling a little anxious now, but I’m also excited about meeting the guys in camp and I’m probably lucky that I’ll have plenty of other guys there to make me feel comfortable,” Casson told the Daily Telegraph. —Agencies
