Justin Langer on India vs Australia Test Series: Australia’s cricket team will come on a tour of India next month to play a four-Test series. Kangaroo team will have a tough test on this tour. Former Australia head coach Justin Langer believes that India is the most difficult country to play Test cricket but Australia is a very balanced team which can create history by defeating Rohit Sharma-led India. The Kangaroo team will play a series of four Test matches during February-March on India tour. Australia has not won a Test series on Indian soil since 2004.
Langer wants to see Australia win
During a conversation with the newspaper The Age, when he was asked that he is not with the Australian team, does he regret it? In response to this question, Langer said, there is nothing sad about it. I have moved on. I will not be there. But I am looking forward to seeing the team win in India. If Australia’s team wins the Test series in India, it will be great. I can’t wait to see it. This is the toughest tour. I remember the 2004 tour when Australia won there after 35 years. During this, Langer further said that Australia has a very balanced team. Who has the guts to defeat India on its own land.
Won only one test in 14 years
If we look at Australia’s last four tours of India, then its performance was quite embarrassing. In the last 14 years, Australia played 14 Test matches on the tour of India. In which the Kangaroo team could win only one match. In the year 2016-17, he won the Pune Test on India Tour. Then Australia defeated India by 333 runs. From 2008-9 to 2016-17, the Australian team has lost four consecutive Test series on Indian soil. This strong record of Team India shows that this time also the path of the Kangaroo team will not be easy on the tour of India. Indian bowlers and batsmen will give a tough test to the guests.
India’s squad for the first two Tests: Rohit Sharma (Captain), KL Rahul (Vice-Captain), Shubman Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Shrikar Bharat (wicketkeeper), Ishan Kishan (wicketkeeper), R Ashwin, Akshar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja, Mohammed Shami , Mohammad Siraj, Umesh Yadav, Jaydev Unadkat, Suryakumar Yadav.
