Rival countries but united by sport. The players of Pakistan were asked to bowl at Indian batsmen in the Sydney Net sessions in order to counter Australian fast bowling trio in one final showdown of the 4-match Test series. Both the fast bowlers Salman Irshad and Haris Rauf represents Lahore Qalandars in Pakistan Super League.

Currently, Indian National Cricket Team is sweating it out in the nets ahead of the fourth Test. For the same, they found perfect net bowlers in the form of Salman and Haris, who are plying their trade in Australia before leaving back to Pakistan.

During the course, they got an offer to bowl at Indian batsmen in the net sessions. Both the fast bowlers accepted the request with gleeful faces to deliver the goods in the net sessions. The duo troubled Indian players with their consistent line and lengths.

Both the pacers can deliver the goods over 150KMPH, which attracted them to get the pass for net sessions. In particular, Haris Rauf’s ability to deliver crunching yorkers might have helped Indians to cope up Mitchell Starc.

”Lahore Qalandars’s fast bowlers Salman Irshad and Haris Rauf done a net bowling session with Indian Team in Aus. Salman Irshad bowls to Virat Kohli. Both Lahore Qalandars’s boys are playing Club Cricket in Australia,” Sports journalist of Abb Tak, Anas Saeed posted.

India will start favourites again:

After securing a comfortable victory at Melbourne, Indian National Cricket Team would once again make their feet to Sydney with favourites to win tag. However, they have got their concerns in the selection process, as Rohit Sharma and Ashwin are once again out from the selection.

On the other side, surprisingly, Australia chose to wait to reveal their playing XI, which is very unlike to them. Perhaps, they are still drawing their plans on their playing XI for the final Test, which is a must-win clash for the hosts.

I just love what I script. Over the years, Cricket has been my passion and crisping articles on it gives me an immense pleasure...Cheers...!!!
