The wait of all cricket fans is about to end. The thrill of the Border-Gavaskar series between India and Australia is going to start from 22nd November. The first match of the series is to be played in Perth and Team India has stepped into the land of kangaroos. However, as soon as they reached Australia, a big warning came from Perth for Rohit and Company. Indian batsmen have been given a warning sign that the Kangaroo fast bowlers will face a litmus test in the first Test.
Such warning from Perth for Team India
The person sending the warning to the Indian team from Perth is none other than the pitch curator. Perth’s pitch supervisor Isaac McDonald says that the pitch prepared for the first Test will have tremendous pace and bounce. This means that fast bowlers will be dominant in Perth and the top order batsmen of Team India will have to be careful.
Let us tell you that for the first match of the series, a drop-in pitch was installed at Optus Stadium in October itself. “This is Australia, this is Perth,” McDonald said. “We are building a pitch where there will be good pace, good bounce and great carry.”
Indian batsmen will have a litmus test
Team India’s batsmen will have a litmus test in the first test match at Perth ground. It will not be easy for the Indian batsmen to bat against the fast balls of Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood on the Perth pitch. If the field is cloudy then this Australian trio can make the conditions worse for the Indian batsmen.
Good news for Indian bowlers
