The Indian team is currently on Australia tour, where it has to play a five-match Test series. He has been in the headlines since Team India reached Australia. There is a lot of pressure on the Men in Blue, as they recently suffered a 0-3 defeat in the home Test series against New Zealand.

Meanwhile, Australia’s legendary wicketkeeper-batsman Ian Healy has criticized the Indian team for not allowing fans and media in the net session before the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Healy believes that the touring team may be unhappy with such a policy.

He said that in the past, Australia used to do something similar on Asia tours. However, he also admitted that Team India would want a ‘safe place’ to escape the everyday scrutiny.

India is now doing what Australia…- Ian Healy

Healy said, India is now doing to Australia what Australia used to do to India, Pakistan and sometimes Sri Lanka. Just not acknowledging the whole experience and the initial media. If you expose yourself to the media and meet the Australian public and the many Indians who come here, it makes for a very pleasant tour.

He said that there are many reasons why India has locked itself down. We cannot imagine the crowd that they have to face day after day. So maybe training is their safe space and they have to do certain things and they want to keep it away from the public eye.

Let us tell you that the first test match between the two teams will be played in Perth from 22nd November. Indian captain Rohit Sharma will not be available for the first Test. Therefore, Jasprit Bumrah will take charge of the Indian team in the Perth Test.
