AUS vs IND 2024-25: Know what is snake crack? Which the Perth pitch curator did not expect amid heavy rain
The first match of the BGT series will be played at Optus Stadium, Perth from 22 November. Perth (Image Credit- Twitter X) Snake cracks in the pitch are a common thing in Perth, Australia. Because of this, the bowlers get a lot of pace and bounce in the old cricket ground located at WACA, Perth. So, the new stadium recently completed at Optus Stadium in Perth is also of this type. The bowlers will also get to see pace and bounce from this pitch, and as the game progresses, the snake cracks on the pitch will open up further. Because of this, spinners can play an important role. Because sometimes these cracks can open up to the extent of 5 mm and batting in this situation is not at all easy. However, preparations for the new pitch that has been completed at the Optus Stadium have been hampered by continuous rain. The pitch had been covered for a long time and this has forced pitch curator Issac McDonald to adapt to the conditions. But despite this, he feels that there will be an equal competition between ball and bat in the first test match of BGT starting from November 22 in Perth. He also said that the pitch is expected to be bad, but big snake cracks are not expected, which troubles the batsmen a lot. Issac McDonald gave a big statement Let us tell you that before the first match of BGT starting in Perth, Issac McDonald was quoted by Business Standard as saying – This (Snake Crack) is based on a lot of conditions. At the moment, we are leaning towards rolling it a little more over the top for a pleasant even collision between bat and ball. It would be good for the pitch if the sun comes out. But really the curating team is spontaneous. I don’t think this weather will spoil the pitch, but there will be some deterioration in the pitch. But with big snake cracks like the ones at the Waka, I don’t think the weather will take us there.
AUS vs IND: Virat Kohli practiced despite rain, refused to leave the nets
Virat has not seen a century in both the last Test series against Bangladesh and New Zealand. Virat Kohli (Photo Source: Indian star batsman Virat Kohli is preparing vigorously for the first Test match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia. The first match between the two teams is to be played in Perth from 22 November. Meanwhile, Australian rain spoiled the mood of Team India. It rained in Perth on Tuesday (19 November), due to which the team had to cancel the practice session. But this rain did not make any difference to King Kohli. He continued batting in the nets despite the rain. Due to heavy rain, Virat Kohli had to leave the nets in the end The practice session on Tuesday (November 19) was just a routine training day, but Virat Kohli, who is struggling with poor form, wanted to take full advantage of it. He batted diligently despite the rain, even though the entire team had left the field. However, after some time it started raining heavily, after which Virat also had to leave the nets. Journalist Bharat Sundaresan tweeted on his social media handle and wrote, This seems to be the top-6, based on how they played in the nets before practice was halted due to rain. Virat Kohli did not want to stop batting, the rain had increased in intensity and he had no option but to run away with the rest of the team. Looks even more like this is the top 6 based on how they went in the nets before rain halted practice. Virat Kohli wasn’t keen to stop batting even as the rain got heavier before he had no option but to run off with the rest of the team #AusvInd — Bharat Sundaresan (@beastieboy07) November 19, 2024 Virat Kohli did not see a century in both the last Test series against Bangladesh and New Zealand. Since 2020, he has scored runs at an average of only 32 in Tests and has scored only two centuries in the last 60 Test innings. His form declined further in 2024, averaging 22.72 in 6 matches and scoring only one half-century in the last 10 innings. India’s top-order will be like this in Perth Test In the absence of Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul can be seen opening with Yashasvi Jaiswal. Rahul was injured during the practice session in Perth, but right now he looks in good form and is practicing batting. Devdutt Padikkal can be seen at number-3 in place of injured Shubman Gill. Whereas Virat Kohli will bat at number-4.
