Dooley, 25, has made an instant impact in the ongoing edition of BBL, claiming ten wickets in six matches at 13.40. for the Hobart Hurricanes. The left-arm wrist-spinner returned with figures of 4-0-16-4 against the Perth Scorchers to help the Hurricanes to an eight-run win while defending 172.
Speaking to Fox Cricket, Waugh feels Dooley has something mysterious about him, given he has plenty of tricks and bowls accurately, a trait needed in the Indian conditions. The 57-year-old elaborated:
While the youngster has feautured in seven T20Is, he is yet to play a first-class game. Hence, he is unlikely to make it to the squad for the marquee Test series.

Australia’s four-Test tour will be their opportunity to register their first series victory on Indian soil in 19 years. The tourists came close in 2017 but faded in the final weeks to lose the series 2-1.
Ahead of the third Test against South Africa in Sydney, captain Pat Cummins said he expects the deck at the SCG to help them prepare for the Indian tour. He said, as quoted by Perth Now:
Australia are currently leading the three-Test series against the Proteas by a margin of 2-0.
