Exciting Contest on Cards

Australia hasn’t won Test Series in India since 2004 and they would be keen to end the drought of 19 years. All eyes would be on the duo of Smith & Warner as the batters have to play according to their credentials. Australia’s spin department looks a bit fragile as apart from Nathan Lyon, there’s not a dangerous spinner present.

India needs to win the Series by a 3-0 or 3-1 margin to stake a claim in WTC 2021-23 final. Head Coach Rahul Dravid needs to be spot on with selection as there are chances that India may play with 3 spinners given Kuldeep Yadav has a pretty good record against Australia.
