Tremain making his mark for Australia A

There aren't too many pace bowlers in Australia that have been in better form over the last 18 months than Chris Tremain.

Since leaving New South Wales in 2014 due to a lack of opportunities, Tremain didn't take long to make an immediate impact in his adopted state of Victoria.

He managed 16 wickets in his debut season for the Bushrangers and then backed it up with a tremendous 36 scalps at an average of just 21.05 as Victoria won a second consecutive Shield title earlier this year.

That impressive form saw Tremain receive a call-up to the Australia A team and the 25-year-old has taken no time showing he belongs at that level as well.

Tremain took five wickets in a four-day game against South Africa A in the first clash of the Australia A winter series last month and backed that up with another dominant performance with the ball in a one-day contest against India A on Sunday.

The tall right armer took another five-wicket haul - including three scalps in four deliveries - as Australia A skittled their Indian counterparts for a paltry score of 55 in humid conditions in Townsville.

It's those type of performances that could lead Tremain to even higher honours this summer, but for now the paceman is just concentrating on bowling well during the winter series.

"It has been really good," Tremain said of his form, having taken 5-25 in Australia A’s eight-wicket victory.

"I have really enjoyed bowling in tandem with the South Australia boys, Joe Mennie in the four dayers and Daniel Worrall in the one dayers.

"They have been good to have at the other end.

"I think there is a bit of luck involved, but we will take it as it comes."

Tremain admitted it had been difficult for him to adapt to the hot and humid conditions his team are currently facing in Queensland, but said the team’s support staff had helped him adjust as quickly as possible.

"It has been different," he said. 

"I think it is the age old adage that you need to listen to your body and I think it is even more important to do that now.

"The support staff have been really good at listening to us and working out what we need to do to get ourselves ready for every game."

Tremain will be back in action on Tuesday when Australia A takes on the National Performance Squad in the next match of the quadrangular series.
