Welcome to this episode with arguably the best young cricketer in Australia.
This is the third of the series of interviews I did during my time in Melbourne. In this interview, I sat down with 20 year old Will Pucovski. Some of you may not have heard of Will – yet, but I have no doubt that he will become a household name in the future. Pucovski burst on to the scene as an 18-year-old during the Aussie under 19 national carnival in December 2016. He had an incredible carnival that included breaking a 22-year old record for the most runs in the Under 19 national carnival. During the carnival Will scored a mammoth 650 runs in eight innings including four centuries and followed it up the next week with his maiden 1st grade hundred in Victorian Premier Cricket.
Since then he has gone on to represent Victoria in 6 first-class matches and 4 List A matches and has a highest score of 180.
Not only does Will have the runs on the board as a young player but he has the goals and desire to reach huge heights which I have no doubt he’ll achieve.
In this episode we discussed:
How he identified that cricket was what he wanted to do and why he chose cricket over his winter sports
How he trained in and out of season during his teenage years
How his journey has accelerated very quickly in the past couple of years and how it’s been a rollercoaster
What his preparation was leading up to the successful under 19 carnival and what he was focusing on
How he found out he was playing for Victoria and how he felt when he has was waiting to bat and in his first few balls.
What his goals are for the future – you’ll want to hear this!
Plus a whole lot more
This is a brilliant episode with a bright and very skillful young player who I can’t wait to see progress further.
