India vs Australia: At the time when the current World No. 1 Test ranking team Australia flew to India, they did not think that more than half of their players would return to the country in the middle of the tour. In the first 2 Test matches, the team had to face a very embarrassing defeat. The batsmen of the Kangaroo team were completely seen struggling in front of the spin bowling attack.
After the Delhi Test match also ended within 3 days, the Australian team got a great opportunity to work on their own mistakes before the third Test match. Prior to that, where team captain Pat Cummins returned home, David Warner has also been out of this entire tour due to injury in the second Test match.
Apart from this, fast bowler Josh Hazlewood, whose fitness was expected by the team before the Test series, has also been ruled out of this entire series. Apart from this, the team management has decided to send left-arm spin bowler Ashton Egger back to the country from the middle of the tour so that he can play domestic matches there.
Suddenly a player was given a debut
At the time when the Australian team was announced for the tour of India, the name of left-arm spin bowler Matthew Kuhneman was not included. When Mitchell Swapson returned home after the first Test match, he was suddenly included in the team and made a direct debut in the second Test match. So far on this tour, the strategy of the Australian team has been completely beyond everyone’s understanding.
However, the good news for the team so far is that Mitchell Starc and Cameron Green were declared fully fit for the last 2 Test matches. Despite this, it cannot be said that after joining the playing XI, how much these players will be able to contribute to their performance team.
Where Mitchell Starc has the experience of playing only 4 Test matches in India so far, in which he has managed to get only 7 wickets at an average of 50.14. At the same time, Cameron Green can play Test match in India for the first time.
