How cool is it to watch Steven Smith and David Warner involving in a healthier net session with the Australian team unit? Meanwhile, the duo is helping out their fast bowlers ahead of tackling Indian batsmen in the first Test in Adelaide, which begins on December 6th. Furthermore, in the video shared out on media by Cricket Australia, it showed how firing bowling unit Australia has got in their ranks.

Imagine Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood bowling at full throttle in a net session. Terrifying right? The trio dismantled the pace reading meter with their firing deliveries against Steven Smith in the recently-concluded net session. The video displayed Steven Smith facing the trio, where he showed his class by knocking them brilliantly. Perhaps, it didn’t look right for Hazlewood, who bowled a stunning bouncer.

Smith, who tried to attempt a hook couldn’t quite hold on to it, as he was down on the ground. However, the former skipper is pretty quick in recovering and knocked the next bouncer out of the park. All in all, it was quite a decent net session for the Australians.

Tightly-contested series on the cards:

As far as the recent form is concerned, team India looks a bit high on the graph. But, Australians got the players, who can dismantle the opposition on their day with ease. With Indian batting lineup looks a bit inexperienced, Australian bowling unit would like to exploit it with their pace.

Meanwhile, it would be interesting to see how the likes of Prithvi Shaw, Rishabh Pant would face the fast bowling trio. India has always struggled in overseas because of the poor batting display by the lower-middle-order department. And the same goes for Australia, who have got the inexperienced lineup.

However, the first Test match is scheduled in Adelaide on December 6th, 2018. Both the sides have already announced their squads and sweating it out in the net sessions.
