Best performance in first-class cricket:-
Let us tell you that since the start of the 2020-21 campaign, Jimmy Pearson has scored 1337 runs at an average of 37.13 and has also scored 6 centuries in the process.
Thus, he is in great form at the moment but with Alex Carey available at the moment, it will be difficult for the cricketer to make it into the playing 11.
Notably, Pierson represented Australia A on two recent tours and scored a century against Sri Lanka in 2022. Now he has the opportunity to represent Australia in the upcoming Ashes 2023.
last year expressed:-
Only last year, the wicketkeeper-batsman expressed his desire to play for Australia in the Ashes.
He was determined and still is like that as he had said earlier that it would disappoint him a lot if he didn’t play Test cricket.
Pearson said- I played Premier League cricket in England a few years back, but would love to experience those conditions again and develop my game.
It will be a disappointment if I don’t play Test cricket, but when my work is done, all I can do is sit back in my chair and know that I have done everything I could.
