Is Sam Konstas the future of Australian cricket or a cocksure teenage knobend spanner?

Konstas compared to Raygun by journalist.

“There was a sense during the India series of Konstas being installed as a cricketing version of Raygun the Olympic breakdancer, a fun, gimmicky approximation of the real thing,”
Steve James of The Times wrote.

He’s scored one sixty, where he had a lot of luck, and he’s gotten way too carried away.

Major Tomic/Kyrgios cocksmack vibes starting to develop

Not sure anyone care what a jealous pom thinks.

Konstas was interviewed on BBL couple nights and he is as humble as pie. Deflected from his performance and thanked teammates (who had actually done nothing).

Nothing wrong with Sammy. Was told to take it up to the best bowler in the world on debut and did exactly that. Arrogant? Sure but he’s a 19 year old that ramped Bumrah for 6 on debut. If that’s not a reason to be an arrogant campaigner I don’t know what is.

But, much like you, he hasn’t fired a shot since…

I don't know why people are whinging about him, he just showing a bit of personally which cricket lacks these days. Back in the 70's and 80's there heaps of cricketers with attitudes and people loved it then.

Being a cocksmack isn’t “personality”, it’s annoying. Something you should know from experience.

Why are you melting about someone that’s younger, has more talent and is more entertaining than you?

Oh. I see now

Looks like Ingliss in and Konatas out.
