Jasprit Bumrah turned spinner as he bowled couple of leg-spin deliveries during practice ahead of the third Test match against Australia in Brisbane starting Saturday. In preparation for the third Test match against Australia in Brisbane beginning on Saturday, Jasprit Bumrah turned into a spinner by bowling a few leg-spin deliveries during practice. Journalist Bharat Sundaresan uploaded a video on X (previously Twitter) showing Bumrah throwing two leg-spinners with a little run-up before returning to his full run-up and launching himself at the hitters. After struggling a little in the second Test match, there were some doubts about Bumrah’s fitness. However, the fast bowler appeared fully recovered after bowling effectively in practice against KL Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal.
Matthew Hayden, a former Australian cricket player, advised the Indian batsmen to bat “better and for time” in the third Test match against Australia in Brisbane, which begins on December 14.
Team India would be keen for large runs and a series-ending victory over the Australians in Brisbane following a lackluster batting display against the pink-ball in Adelaide.
The hosts recovered greatly after suffering a crushing defeat to the visitors by 295 runs at Perth’s Optus Stadium, where Jasprit Bumrah, KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, and Yashasvi Jaiswal all made outstanding contributions. Red-ball wizards Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins bowled brilliantly, and Travis Head’s counterattacking century helped them crush India by 10 wickets while chasing down an incredibly easy target of 19 runs.
Since the beginning of their home Test season against Bangladesh and New Zealand, Team India’s batting has mainly been listless, notwithstanding their impressive performance in Perth, when they declared 487/6 in the second innings courtesy to heroics from KL Rahul, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and Virat Kohli.
India has only reached totals of 250 or more four times in seven Test matches and fourteen innings since the Test season began against Bangladesh.
Seven times, they were skittled out for fewer than 200 runs. Only twice have India scored more over 300, once in Perth during the first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy and once against New Zealand, when they were 462-all out.
