There’s incredible excitement and anticipation building as the top two Test nations – Australia and India – get set to renew their hostilities in four Tests…
Warner said he is looking forward to playing against the best spinners in the world. “Being a part of the last Ashes was fantastic but to go to India and beat India in India is the toughest challenge in Test cricket for us.”
Cummins, who is riding the crest of a wave after leading his squad to victories in recent internationals, echoed the sentiments of his colleagues. “Winning a series in India is like an Ashes away series [win] but even more rare. It will be a career highlight, an era-defining series if we win out there.”
India, who will be led by opening batsman Rohit Sharma, will be minus their best bowlers but both countries have a plethora of riches for replacements. Ace fast bowlers Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Starc will miss the Nagpur Test but should be back in the mix for the second one scheduled for New Delhi on Feb. 17.
Local eyes will be on Sharma who will be leading the team for only the second time since he assumed the captaincy from Virat Kohli a year ago. Injuries have sidelined him but he will be looking at this series to make an impact. He will be chasing a series win that will lift India into the World Test Championship final to be played in June. India has a well-balanced squad but will miss star pace bowler Jasprit Bumrah.
