Virat Kohli (Photo Source: Former Australian wicketkeeper-batsman Ian Healy is eager to see what plan the host fast bowlers will bowl against Virat Kohli. He has appealed to the Australian fast bowler to first target the front pad of the Indian batsman and then bowl him a short ball. Let us tell you that Virat Kohli is counted among the best batsmen in the world and his performance in international cricket has always been tremendous. However, there has been a decline in Virat Kohli’s form for some time now. For some time now, Virat Kohli has failed to leave his mark in international cricket. However, this veteran player has batted tremendously in Test cricket in Australia. He has scored 1392 runs in 13 Tests in Australia at an average above 54. His highest individual score here is 169 runs. Speaking on SENQ Breakfast, Ian Healy said, ‘First of all I want to see how our fast bowlers bowl against Virat Kohli. I would say that the bowlers should first target the front leg of Virat Kohli. After this, as soon as they faced some trouble, the host bowlers bowled short balls. This will cause a lot of trouble to Virat Kohli and we can take his wicket soon. If this is not making any difference then target their body. I am sure that Virat Kohli will have a lot of trouble with this. Ian Healy gave a big statement about Virat Kohli Ian Healy further said, ‘Keep the ball away from Virat Kohli so that he wants to come and hit the ball. You can then target their front pad. But if his footwork is good then target the body. I want him to play an uncontrolled hook or bridge. I will definitely have a short leg against him in Perth. The 5-match Test series against Australia and India is starting from 22nd November. The first test between these two teams will be played in Perth. Virat Kohli would like to play match-winning innings for his team in the upcoming series.

BGT 2024-25: Before BGT, photo of Mitchell Starc practicing with a special ball went viral.
Border-Gavaskar Trophy will start from 22nd November Mitchell Starc (Image Credit- Twitter X) Before the much-awaited Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test series between Australia and India (AUS vs IND), Australian team fast bowler Mitchell Starc has made headlines. It is noteworthy that the first match of this series will be played at Perth Stadium from 22nd November. So, before this match, in a practice session of the Australian team, Starc was seen practicing with a special kind of ball. The ball with which Starc is practicing is red on one side and white on the other. According to cricket experts, this type of ball helps the bowler a lot in maintaining hand-eye balance. By practicing with this type of ball, Starc can gain control over the late movement swing in the match. The pitch curator of Perth Stadium recently said that some grass is expected to be left on the pitch, due to which the fast bowlers can prove to be effective in the match. See this photo of Mitchell Starc viral on the internet Mitchell Starc was seen using a ball that was half red and half white to assist batters in practicing for lateral movement. 📷: Rev Sportz pic.twitter.com/JaKOsHrSMq — SportsTiger (@The_SportsTiger) November 18, 2024 On the other hand, if the latest media reports are to be believed, then Indian batsmen may face a lot of trouble due to late movement bowling at the end of the first Test match to be held in Perth. Perhaps this is the reason why Starc is practicing with a special type of ball before this match to take advantage of this weakness of India. However, this move by Australia could serve as a double-edged sword, as the current Indian team has a lot of bowlers who can work their magic in swing conditions. So if we tell you about Starc’s performance in Test cricket in the year 2024, he has bowled in 10 innings, in which he has taken a total of 27 wickets at an average of 32.25 and strike rate of 49.60. Apart from this, his average in Test cricket against the Indian team is 35.84. However, now it will be worth watching whether Starc is able to reduce his average against Team India in the upcoming series or not?

BGT 2024-25: “There is a strong need to play practice matches…”, Sanjay Manjrekar expressed concern over India’s current form.
Not having practice matches can make a difference, especially this time because of the form and confidence with which the team is going to Australia – Sanjay Manjrekar Team India & Sanjay Manjrekar (Photo Source: Getty Images) The Indian team is going to play the first match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test series against Australia from November 22 in Perth. The team is currently working hard for the first Test in Perth. Before the start of the series, it was announced that Team India would not play a single practice match. India had to suffer a humiliating 3-0 defeat against New Zealand in the last Test series. Let us tell you, after 24 years, a team clean-swept India at home. Team India’s form remains a matter of concern due to poor performance in the series against New Zealand. In view of this, former Indian cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar gave his opinion regarding India’s form and the need for practice matches. Practice matches are decreasing in recent times- Sanjay Manjrekar Before the Test series against Australia, the Indian team was scheduled to play an intra-squad match against India A, but it was cancelled. Sanjay Manjrekar feels that players like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma would have liked to play some practice matches before the series, especially with the kind of form the team is in right now. The former cricketer also talked about India-A’s struggle against Australia-A despite being in form at home. Sanjay Manjrekar while speaking on ESPNcricinfo said, Not having practice matches could make a difference, especially this time with the kind of form and confidence the team is going into in Australia. The trend in recent times has been that practice matches are becoming less frequent, but on this particular tour we saw India A batsmen struggle despite being in form in Indian conditions. So yes, India was in dire need of playing more practice matches. Sanjay Manjrekar also emphasized on how the Indian team can take advantage of not playing practice matches. The team has often performed better when they have not played many practice matches before the series. India can respond to the fact that the team performed better when they were given fewer practice matches. In the 90s, we played many practice matches and still lost to Australia 0-4. I think the Indian batsmen are getting used to the conditions, but this time there are a lot of young players. “Maybe the previous team didn’t need the experience, but I think we needed some matches here, and I think Virat and Rohit would have liked to play practice matches.”
