Border Gavaskar Trophy: The Border-Gavaskar series starts in Perth from Friday. Australia will look to avenge the defeat in the last two series. Australian captain Pat Cummins addressed the press conference before the match. He said that the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against arch-rivals India is going to be intense. Meanwhile, he felt that there was more pressure on our team in BGT. There is no need to copy the team players.
Cummins said, ‘The Border-Gavaskar Trophy is always very challenging. The five-Test series will be more competitive. The pressure will be on our team which has lost the last four Test series against India. There is always pressure while playing at home. The Indian team is very talented and it will be a good challenge, but we are not thinking too far ahead. It would be great to win the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. The Indian team is very good, but our preparation is also solid.
Cummins also said that new batsman Nathan McSweeney will have to show his natural game instead of copying David Warner. Warner retired from international cricket earlier this year. Don’t try to play like David Warner. This is not his game.
What did Pat Cummins say on Nitish Reddy?
“He is a very impressive player,” he said about India’s talented all-rounder and his Sunrisers Hyderabad teammate in the IPL, Nitish Reddy. Has not bowled much for Sunrisers, but he is good at swinging the ball.
