Cooper Connolly Fails To Impress On CT Debut
Cooper Connolly was a last-minute replacement for the injured Matthew Short, who has now been ruled out of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The all-rounder, however, failed to leave a mark in the seni-final fixture, as his innings ended without troubling the scorers.
Outdone by pace off the pitch, and movement, Cooper Connolly gave in to the temptation of hitting the width-ball towards the cover region, and ended up clipping the toe end of his bat to hand a soft dismissal.

Edge & GONE! #MohammadShami strikes, and Cooper Connolly’s struggle comes to an end!
