DTVHINDIBumrah’s tension may increase after seeing these figures before BGT, Pat Cummins alone said…
AUS vs IND (Photo Source: The five-match Test series between India and Australia is going to start from November 22 at the Optus Stadium in Perth. There will be a lot of pressure on the Indian team in this series after recently facing a clean sweep from New Zealand at home. The path to the World Test Championship has become difficult for India after losing 3-0 in the series against New Zealand. If India now wants to reach the WTC final, then they will have to perform well against Australia. To win BGT, Team India will have to perform well in all three departments (batting, bowling and fielding). The pace attack of the Indian team for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 is not as experienced as that of the host team Australia. You will be surprised to know that all the pacers of the Indian team together have not been able to take as many wickets in Test cricket as the Australian team captain Pat Cummins has in his account. AUS vs IND: India’s bowling attack is very weak compared to Australia. Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood are part of the playing XI for the Perth Test match. The number of Test wickets taken by these three is 900, whereas the four pacers of the Indian team together have been able to take only 265 wickets. In this way, in terms of bowling, the strength of the Australian team will be three times that of India. In the Test, Jasprit Bumrah has taken 173 wickets, Mohammad Siraj has taken 80 wickets, Akash Deep has taken 10 wickets and Prasidh Krishna has taken 2 wickets. The number of wickets taken by these four is 265, while Australian team captain Pat Cummins alone has taken 269 wickets in Test cricket. Whereas Harshit Rana and Nitish Reddy have not yet debuted in Test cricket. Although when Team India last toured Australia, India’s pace attack was much weaker than Australia, yet the Indian team was successful in defeating the Kangaroos at their home. In such a situation, it will be interesting to see how Team India performs in this Border Gavaskar series.
