Though Australian pace trio Starc, Hazlewood and Cummins are grabbing the attention, team India also got the experienced lineup in their kitty. They have got the likes of Shami, Ishant, Bhuvneshwar and the underrated Bumrah, who got the incredible skills to deliver the goods. Meanwhile, Cameron White also highlights the same. Team India has always got greatest batting lineups in Test cricket but unfortunately, failed to get the same quality in bowling section. However, the last couple of seasons has been different, as the bowlers pulled their socks up to deliver for them.

Batting is the key – Cameron White

White feels Australia has got brilliant people in the bowling department but feels the real concern is the batting. He is not sure whether they can put enough runs on the board to help the fast bowlers deliver the goods.

Further, he also added  Indian bowling could match up the Australia bowling, but sadly, Australian batting doesn’t seem like matching Indian batting unit. He also spoke on Aaron Finch for the opening slot as well.

“I think it’s going to be tight. It’s just going to be whether we can make enough runs really. I back especially (Josh) Hazlewood and (Pat) Cummins, I think they’re superstars…it’s just going to be whether we can make enough runs. A Big Challenge for Aaron Finch. He’ll obviously be aware of that, he’s a smart player. You don’t get to play for Australia if you’re not a good player,” Cameron White quoted.

“Bhuvneshwar very skilful, who can swing the ball both ways, Bumrah is underrated and quick enough and Ishant just got better and I think he was there best bowler in that England series. If we play quite a lot of left-handers, which looks like we’re going to do, I think they’re suited to bringing the ball into the right-handers and away from the lefties from over and around the wicket, so I think they match up well against us sadly,” he said to SEN.

Well, it would be interesting to see how things would pan out for Australia. As Cameron White said, it is the matter of runs on the board for Australia, as they have got firing unit in the bowling department.
