India vs Australia Test Series: The Indian cricket team has reached Australia for the Border Gavaskar Trophy. Team India has reached there in two batches. However, captain Rohit Sharma has not gone to Australia yet. It is believed that he may miss the first match. The first match of the five-match series will be played in Perth. Even though there is still time in the series, the tension for Team India has already increased as the reports coming out so far suggest that the Perth pitch will be very bouncy, which could cause trouble for the Indian batsmen.
The first match of the five-Test series between India and Australia will begin on November 22. Which will be played at the historical ground of Perth. The Indian team recently played New Zealand on a pitch that was conducive to spinners, which means the Indian batsmen are used to playing spin at this point. It is another matter that even there Team India had to face defeat in three consecutive matches. It is said that the pitch prepared in Perth is drop-in, that is, it is not a Perth pitch, it is prepared from somewhere else and dropped here. The pitch, which was prepared in September, has now reached Perth, where the first Test match between India and Australia will be played. Perth’s pitch can be fast and bouncy, according to a Cricinfo report.
The Australia series is very important for the Indian team
Australia series is becoming very important for India. Team India which was considered as a strong contender to reach the final of the World Test Championship. But after losing three consecutive matches against New Zealand, the Indian team has now reached the second position. If we talk about Australia, this team has reached number one even without playing. Although the Indian team is second in the WTC points table, but even after this, the team’s final appearance seems highly doubtful. Because the tour to Australia has never been easy for the Indian team. India has also captured the series by winning the matches, but India had to work hard to win.
After playing the first match in Perth, the Indian team will also play a pink ball test against Australia. Which will be very important. If we talk about the equations so far, there is a possibility of going to the final only if the Indian team defeats Australia in the series by 3.2. Although it is possible to do it in Australia, it is certainly not easy. Also if fast and bouncy pitches are made then there will be more difficulties. Meanwhile, look forward to the 22nd, when India and Australia take to the field for the first Test.
