Ahead of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2018/19, all the eyes of Australian fans have relied on Usman Khwaja, who recovered in time to play Indians. He was coming into the series on the back of a stunning knock in UAE and the fans were expecting him to repeat the show. Unfortunately, it wasn’t the case for a southpaw. Meanwhile, Sourav Ganguly makes a comment on his sorrows while facing Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja.

Usman Khawaja failed to find his shoes settling in the crease when Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja appears in the Indian bowling lineup. He was dismissed for the duo in a most sub-continent way to stretch the vows for Australia.

Ironically, they are falling as a unit – Sourav Ganguly

Further, former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly has criticized the Australian batsmen for a lack of temperament, technique, and quality after failing to impress in the third Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), which resulted in India winning the match by 137 runs.

Though the host nation might be missing out on the services of Steve Smith and David Warner, Ganguly believes that the other batsmen by no means have the right to come up with an excuse. He feels that all of them have played important parts with the bat in their career as well.

“The current batting lineup of Australia sans David Warner and Steven Smith is born and brought up in the country. Hence, there is in no ways weak. But it’s ironic that they are failing as a unit for quite some time now,” he quoted.

”Usman Khawaja has been found out by the Indian attack to the extent that even if he is asleep, Ravi Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja can dismiss him in his dreams,” Sourav Ganguly added to his lines.

Well, as Sourav Ganguly quoted, Australian batsmen should come good at any cost against Indian Lineup in the final Test of the series in order to avoid further embarrassment for the team.
