'I was loving it!' Pucovski makes his mark in the baggy green


SYDNEY (Reuters) - Australia's Will Pucovski waited a long time to make his test debut but he delivered at the first time of asking with a half century in the third test against India at Sydney Cricket Ground on Thursday.

The 22-year-old, his shaggy hair bulging out from beneath his helmet, certainly rode his luck but his 62 was the best return for an Australian opener in the series so far and helped his side into a strong position at the end of day one.
