Australian all-rounder Beau Webster is feeling 바카라speechless바카라 after his impressive debut against India during the fifth Test here, which the hosts won by six wickets to reclaim the Border-Gavaskar Trophy after a decade.

Webster made 57 and unbeaten 37 in the two innings of the Sydney Test, important contributions in the match바카라s context, besides taking the wicket of Shubman Gill in India바카라s second innings.

바카라I'm a bit speechless, honestly. If you told me a week ago that all this would happen in the last few days, I wouldn't have believed you,바카라 Webster told cricket.com.au.

바카라It's been a dream debut and to get the win there inside three days is a hell of a feeling. I'm sure the boys will celebrate accordingly,바카라 he added. 

The Tasmanian had a nice ending to his debut Test when he smashed spinner Washington Sundar for a boundary down the ground to collect the winning runs.

The 31-year-old said he would cherish that moment forever. 

바카라When I hit that cut-shot boundary, I saw we only needed four (to win) and I thought, 'It's got to be one of these two balls 바카라 how many chances are you going to get to hit a boundary for the winning runs for your country?바카라 

바카라I was going to go no matter where that ball was, that last one, and managed to make connection. I looked straight at 'Heady' (batting partner Travis Head) and he was up and about,바카라 he noted.

바카라It was a great moment, probably one I'll never forget. That's something that might never happen again 바카라 especially a boundary on the fifth Test of a decider. It doesn't get much better than that,바카라 he added.

Webster replaced an out of form Mitchell Marsh in the Australia eleven for the New Year Test, and the all-rounder admitted that initially he felt a bit 바카라awkward.바카라

바카라It was a bit of an awkward moment. I sort of came to training at the last minute, and I didn't think that they'd change the team. I hadn't heard anything right up until the training (the day) before the game, and I just expected it to be the same XI.

바카라Then we got to the ground and asked Mitch what he was doing, and he said, 'I'm waiting to see if I'm playing바카라. That hit me by surprise a little bit and then in the next hour or so, we were fumbling around until I went back in the change rooms.

바카라He (Marsh) had a big grin on his face and just said, 'You're in mate바카라. And he couldn't have been happier. He's been unbelievable this week,바카라 Webster said, explaining the situation surrounding his entry into the Australian team.
